Default Excel Filtering Question

How do I Filter for the last character of a label in Excel 2003. I want to
find every entry that ends in a specific letter.
Thanks

Default Excel Filtering Question

If the last character (reading left to right) on which you want to filter is
X, then: =IF(RIGHT(F23,1)="X",1,"") and fill down (correct cell reference as
appropriate).

Then filter the table for all rows which have a 1 value in this helper column.

Ta, use a helper column, put in =RIGHT(A2,1) and fill down, change to your
data reference and filter on that column
