In a column i have the following example

307
307,607
105,122,151,307,451

How can I filter to show all those woth 307. In this case, the top 3 records

Thanks in advance

Try using Data- Filter- AutoFilter, then when you click to set the filter,
choose Custom, and choose 'contains' and type 307

use a helper column with this formula:

=IF(ISERROR(FIND("307",A1)),"","incl. 307")

then apply an autofilter on "incl. 307"

pls click YES if it helped

Hi

thanks

This did work, although the other post was easier, it did not work for me

Not sure where the "yes button" is?

Ignore these time-wasting references to a "Yes" button. That applies only
to people who post to the newsgroup via Microsoft's web interface, so it has
no relevance to people who access the newsgroup by normal methods.
