How do you create a Macro to return text from multiple cells that fit your criteria?
 
Does anyone know how you create a Macro to return text from multiple
cells that fit your criteria? Let's say you have a worksheet with 100
records of people's names and various information about them (job,
age, salary, etc.). You want to create a Macro that will return the
names of everyone who fit a set of criteria you specify, i.e. Lawyers,
or Doctors AND over 50 years old, etc. Does anyone know how to do
this? Thanks.

If the XL file is closed or in a database, using ADO/SQL or DataImport
External DataNew Database query, would be the simplest route.

Otherwise, look into DataAdvanced Filter and record a macro whilst you
perform the actions.
