On Sheet 1, the column should have the heading 'Location', to match the
column heading on sheet 2.

In the Advanced Filter dialog box, the List should be $A$1:$C$1000, to
include all the columns of your table (Locations'!$A$1:$A$7) don't
include any blank cells, or all the records will pass through the filter.

For the criteria range

and failing miserably :(

I've got two sheets in my spreadsheet.
Sheet1 has a subset of location numbers in ColA
Sheet2 has a lot of columns, one of which is the location number.
Name Hours Location
Fred 8 2
Joe 10 3
Jim 6 2

I'm trying to use the advanced filter to get Sheet2 to display only
those entries which have their location specified in Sheet1.

I've taken the List range as being $B$1:$B$1000 (as in example above)
and the criteria range as being 'Locations'!$A$1:$A$7 and, as far as I
can tell, absolutely nothing happens.

Any suggestions as to how I can go about this?
Cheers

Thankyou!
I had a blank line after the heading on the first sheet - doh!
