Default Advanced filter not in a list

Assuming you have a list of items in a range named MyList
For the criteria area, leave the heading cell blank, and in the cell
below, enter a formula that refers to the list of items, and the column
in the table that you want to check.

For example, if the column to check is column G, and the data starts in
row 2:

=COUNTIF(MyList,G2)=0

When you run the Advanced Filter, select both the blank heading cell,
and the cell with the formula, for the criteria range.
