Generally one will copy the results of the filter to another
location...........maybe a new worksheet?

You cannot "show all" after a filter without removing the filtered results.

There's a Clear button to the right of the giant funnel/filter icon. You can
click it again to show all the data and still preserve the arrows.

But I'm not sure what you really mean about losing the filter...

There are at least 3 methods:

1) go to the column that is filtered, click on the dropdown arrow and select
"Clear Filter"
2) on the top menu, go to HomeEditingSort & Filter and select "Clear"
(this is useful if you have multiple columns that are filtered and you don't
want to have to clear the filter on each column individually.
3) this is a keyboard shortcut held over from XL2003; Alt-D F S. This is
the same as #2 above.

Hope this helps.
