How to AutoFilter certain cells in a column (in Excel not VBA) for an Asterisk "*" ?
2003/2007
Yep! There is always one in the crowd .... Certain cells in a field (column) begin with "*" How do I filter those fields when "*" is a wildcard. I could handle this in VBA, but is there a way in Excel w/o helper columns? TIA EagleOne |

One way:
Custom Autofilter/Show rows whe xxx begins with ~* (You can find this escape character in XL Help, "Wildcard characters you can use to find text or numbers") In article .com, EagleOne wrote: 2003/2007 Yep!
