Default Find blank with Advanced Filter

Hi Groupies

I have an XL 2007 database that has some blank cells in the postal code
field. I realize that I can filter these blanks very easily using Autofilter,
but how can I find them using Advanced Filter? What do I need to put in the
criteria range?

Thanks for the brainwaves!

Default Find blank with Advanced Filter

In the rcriteria area, enter the column heading in the first row.
In the cell below, enter: ="="
For example, to find records with no price entered:

Price
="="
