Filter Sort Columns in a table.
I have a table in a worksheet with column headings in 5A through 5BC each
transaction is entered in rows, starting with row 6 through row 250. The Filter is turned on in the column headings. When I click on the arrow I can choose a filter sort. Do the formulas prevent the filtering??? When I do nothing happens. If I copy the sheet to another sheet and paste using Special Paste and paste only Values and Number Formats the filter and sort works perfectly. What am I doing wrong??? Thanks, Mike |

Hi,
The filters have no problem with formulas, but the sort command does. You will need to show us a sample of your formulas so we can make addtional suggestions. Sometimes there are work arounds for this problem. -- If this helps, please click the Yes button Cheers, Shane Devenshire "Mike" wrote: I have a table in a worksheet with column headings in 5A through 5BC each transaction is entered in rows, starting with row 6 through row 250.

Hi Shane,
This is the formula in A6 =INDIRECT("'transaction database'!"&ADDRESS(COLUMN()+4,(COLUMN())+ROW()-4)) This is the formula in A7 =INDIRECT("'transaction database'!"&ADDRESS(COLUMN()+4,(COLUMN())+ROW()-5)) The only change in the formula in the row is the last #-6, -7, -8, etc Then the entire row is copy and pasted down to row 250. Hope this helps! Thanks, Mike "Shane Devenshire" wrote: Hi, The filters have no problem with formulas, but the sort command does.
