Filter: Multiple values in a cell
Sorry if this was covered here before - spent long time searching... I'm trying to use excel as a database ;) I have a very long Excel table that lists the features in the application. Easy part: I need to keep an information about the customer who requested this particular feature and to be able to sort the list of features by the customer name. So the easiest way will be to add a column with the customer name in it and auto-filter by this column. Hard part: one feature can be requested by multiple customers. So somehow I need to put multiple customer names into one cell and still be able to filter. Eben harder: I need to have also the version column (and if this feature was implemented in two different versions - again - I should havea multiple values in this cell and be able to filter. Any suggestions? Thanks ~p -- pandora ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pandora's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=29381 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=490931 |

Filter: Multiple values in a cell
Add another column and use the CONCATENATE function to combine as many
columns as you need and then sort and/or filter based on that new column. "pandora" wrote in message ... Sorry if this was covered here before - spent long time searching...
