I am assuming you know the basics as how to set up the criteria range with
headers etc. To get 1542 you can use

* 1542 *


assuming there is a space before and after will find all entries that have
1542 in the string. If you want entries with either those 2 you can setup
the criteria like this

Address Address
* 1542 *
* 1711 *



replace Address with whatever header you use, note that OR filtering then
you use the next value one cell below so if you have 3 different values you
would use a criteria that is another header and the next value another row
below so the whole area would cover 3X4 cells
