I have a very simple spreadsheet with basically text and date data (no
numbers) for action planning.

Name Action Item ... Date Quarter Notes

Users can use autofilter and sorting to see the data. But, because for some
cells it can be a text data with many words and the cells are not formatted
to show the whole text it would be better to use some reporting functionality
with may be a form. On that form the user could choose the data from
comboboxes he/she wants to see (be sorted) and some reports similar to
Access could be shown.

Could anybody advise the way I could do it?

Thanks
