Please bear with me on this one...I hav
a worksheet that lists truck drivers, locations they service, rout #, truck # and some other related info. I have the auto filte turned on and I have everything in seperate columns except for th locations, they are in a single column seperated by a comma. Som drivers may have up to 6 different locations they cover in a give day, others have only 1. I have standardized the cities so that they have common abbreviations I have made a list of the cities and their abbreviations and linke them to a combo box for easier reference. Then I have to eithe "find"(ctrl + F) the city I'm looking for or do a "custom" searc under the "cities" column (using auto filter). Both of these option work but I would like to search directly from the comb box so that when a city is selected the auto filter wil automatically do a "contains" search on the column and only show th rows with that city liste I know I could do a macro but I'm not sure if thats the best option. I have several people using this that don't know Excel at all so I' trying to make it as simple as possible Any help/ideas/suggestions are appreciated Cla -------- www.coffeecozy.co Use your Bodum and give up cold coffee for good! |
