Default Can I filter just one cell instead of the whole row?

That's it. Can I do this somehow?

There is probably a better way to do this I'm sure but if push comes to shove
you could insert a blank column before and after the column you want to
filter and then hide the blank columns then use the autofilter.

Just select the range to filter first. (Just the single column.)

Then apply data|filter|autofilter.

I suspect that the OP wanted the arrow key to show up in one cell--filtering a
single column.

But I could be wrong...
