Yes, you are right about the error messages. Excel
is a fantastic program but there are many parts to it
that make me want to throttle it's creators. <bg

Glad it worked out,
Martin

You are right, Martin. I have formulae in some columns. The error message
is
very much mis-leading keeping the Fieldnames in focus.

Anyhow, thank you very much and have a very good time

Hi Abassi,

Sounds like maybe one of your columns is a formula returning
a result. Try selecting the column with the formula, copy it
and Paste SpecialValues in place. That will convert
your formulae to values.

Does Advanced Filter behave properly now?

Hi everyone!

When I use Advanced Filter to filter out Unique records and copy them
to a
new location, it copies only the first record and only the first column
of
the data.

I tried with the heading-row included and excluded but the result
doesn't
change.

When I apply the same strategy to another worksheet with the same
headings
but different data, it reports an error "The extract range has a
missing
or
illegal field name".

I think, I am not complying with some requirements of the feature.

Please help me, in a bit detail, so as to get me out of this problem.
