Possible to apply Autofilter to a subset of available columns?
Hello,
I have a spreadsheet to which I want to apply Autofilter. However, I don't want to be able to sort on all columns, that is, I only want to be to filter and sort the spreadsheet based on some of the columns, with the other columns having no downward pointing arrow in their headers. I've found a way to do this for a single column. If I drag and select the column and enable Autofiler, then Autofilter is only enabled for that column. But I haven't found a way to do it for multiple and non-contiguous columns. Can anyone help? Many thanks, Paul -- paul-dot-moore@pandora-dot-be Adjust dots for real address |
You can hide some of the arrows with programming. There's sample code he
