Wildcards in Advanced filter criteria don't work with Excel 2003
Technique: Filtering a list using Advanced Filter (filter-in-place). Using
wildcards used to work in earlier versions of Excel, but it doesn't seem to work in Excel 2003. I have 2 PCs, one with Excel 2002 at work and one with Excel 2003 at home. The same Excel file will work in Excel 2002 and fail in Excel 2003. It may be fixed in a service pack which I don't have..... ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Wildcards in Advanced filter criteria don't work with Excel 2003
Wildcards seem to work in Excel 2003. Can you give an example of the

Wildcards in Advanced filter criteria don't work with Excel 20
I tried it twice with and without code. On 2 different machines. If you send
me your email, I'll send you a sample if you don't mind. "Debra Dalgleish" wrote: Wildcards seem to work in Excel 2003.

Got it. The problem was including ".value" after the range name for the
criteria in code. Thanks for responding. "Inconceivable" wrote: I tried it twice with and without code. On 2 different machines. If you send me your email, I'll send you a sample if you don't mind.
