display count/results of filtering Excel in status bar
I have two Excel spreadsheets. In one the results of applying a filter are
displayed in the status bar - eg. '24 of 144 records found'. In the other I get just 'Filter mode'. I've examined the option settings - they appear identical. There are no macros attached to the sheets either. The '24 of 144 records found' type of message is very useful. How do I make all my spreadsheets produce it on filtering? |
Found the answer - a bug in Excel which stops the status bar displaying the
count if the sheet contains 51 or more calculated cells. The 'fix' is to turn off automatic recalculation (Tools Options - Calculation tab & select manual calculation) "JayDax" wrote: I have two Excel spreadsheets.

If you are not seeing a count of records on the status bar see Debra Dalgleish's site for reasons and workarounds. http://www.contextures.on.ca/xlautofilter02.html#Count Gord Dibben Excel MVP On Thu, 21 Jul 2005 13:42:15 -0700, JayDax wrote: I have two Excel spreadsheets.
