Multiple Criteria in same Column
I am using the criteria area and advance filter to sort to types of
information from the same column. I have added an additional column to my criteria area to represent the 2nd set of information I need from the same column. Not sure what I am doing wrong. |

You really need to share more about what you're doing.
What criteria do you want?

My inexperience is really showing...I am embarrased.
I will try again... I have a table with an age column (among other columns), I want to use the Advance Filtering option and created a criteria area. I copied the entire table heading to the area and created a criteria field. I have to columns labeled "age" in the first age column I entered <21 and in the second age column <25. I want the filter to give me the information for everyone <21 and then everyone <25. I have been successful in getting the <21 information extracted, however, the <25 is not showing up in the extracted area. My problem is 21< age <25 and I am learning how to use excel to extract data. Thank you for your patience and assistance. "Ron Coderre" wrote: You really need to share more about what you're doing.

I might be missing something, but .....if you get everyone under age
25...won't that include everyone under age 21, too? If you share what you want to do with the information (how you want to use it) maybe we can come up with something to help you solve your problem. *********** Best Regards, Ron XL2002, WinXP "Charlene" wrote: My inexperience is really showing...I am embarrased.

You don't need the Advanced Filter to do that. You can just use the
AutoFilter. Select the Age column Select Custom Is greater than 21 And Is less than 25 OK Biff "Charlene" wrote in message ... I wish I knew how to share more info with you!

In one Age column, the criterion is: 21
In the other Age column, the criterion is: <25 Because the criteria are both on the same row, it will filter for records with Age greater than 21 AND less than 25.

You've received some good answers...so, I'll just say this:
You cleared the first hurdle for getting help: You ASKED for the help.

We'll see that you've only posted a few times and coach you on what information we'll need to help you solve your Excel problems.
