They won't have to know how to use the filter if you set up a
worksheet_change event macro to do it for you. Right click sheet tabview

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address < "$I$1" Then Exit Sub

Good morning. A couple of years ago I saw a formula that would allow you
to
look up info in a column (the NAME column below) and return all the data
in
any row that found a match. So, you could have a separate worksheet that
would return all rows that had the name "Smith" or whatever in the Name
Column. Can somehow help me figure out that formula? Thanks. Cyndi
