Extracting Data from a table using a keyword
I am struggling with an excel spreadsheet that has been inherited from
another person and I would like to extract data from the table using 'keywords' that will then copy the row/s depending on the keyword. The client has requested that the information that used to be bundled together be seperated and reported on. Thanks for any help you can provide Ant |

Extracting Data from a table using a keyword
DataFilterAutofilter should do the job.
Copy the results to another sheet for reporting.

Extracting Data from a table using a keyword
Many thanks for this - I was hoping there might be a way to do it by formula
as I have to look at data from somewhere in the region of 200-250 different worksheets...
