Thanks Gary. That does seem incredible to me; however, that's my
experience, too. It sure seems like a spreadsheet being used as a database
(nothing is particularly relational here!) could be filtered and subtotaled.
Guess we'll have to do it the hard way. Sigh... Perhaps someone has a
better suggestion???

AFAIK,
That, unfortunately, is the way Excel works. SubTotals and Filtering do
not go well together.

When I do a subtotal of data, there is the collapsable column to the

the 1, 2 and 3 that allow me to collapse the data down to just the

a
filter is applied to the data, THEN subtotals is run, there is no 1 2 3
to
the left so I cannot collapse the data.
Am I doing something wrong or is there something else I need to know
about?
Do I have to select all the visible cells and copy to another sheet
before I
can run the subtotals and be able to collapse the data? TIA!
