Hidden Rows with Auto-Filter
My spreadsheet has several columns. Two of which a Phase & Account Name.
Account Name is in Alphabetical Order, and each account has a Phase assigned to it. (1,2,3,4,5,etc). I am using Auto-Filter to view each phase seperately. I have also created a bunch of rows right under the header row that shows Phase Title, and Target Dates. These rows are hidden. It's nice - because now when I sort my Phases, they show titles, and dates, and I have columns that indicate the progress... Problem: When I change the auto-filter drop-down from an actual phase back to "all" - it unhides the rows, and makes my spreadsheet look ridiculous. Is there any way to keep these rows hidden unless they are selected via the auto-filter function? (Praying this makes sense.) -- Carol |

Hidden Rows with Auto-Filter
Hi, Carol -
Two thoughts - could you move your hidden rows to above the filter row - or change the font of the hidden rows to white. HTH, another Carole "Carol" wrote: My spreadsheet has several columns.

Hidden Rows with Auto-Filter
Thanks Carol. If I move the hidden rows above the filter, they won't appear
in the filter. If I change them to white, they will still appear after sorting from, say 1 to All - and now just look like a lump of rows. I am really wanting them to act as title rows for the filter. I was hoping there was some kind of formula, or VBA entry that could make this happen.
