Default Advanced Filter

My filter criteria is:

Warehouse is Keppel
Customer is not Tristar
Invoice numbers do not begin with 'SA' or 'SM'

This is what I did at the filter criteria range:

Warehouse Customer Inv No Inv No
=Keppel <Tristar <"SA*" <"SM*'


It didn't work the way I want. What's wrong?

Don't you need to put Keppel and Tristar within quotes " " ?

And in your post you have an apostrophe after SM*

Hope this helps.

What didn't work? More info needed. i.e.: what got through the filter that
shouldn't have been, or, what got filtered out that shouldn't have been?

Works fine for me. What did not work for you?

Btw, you don't need the equal sign for Keppel, meaning you don't have to set
the criteria up like


="=Keppel"

or

="<Tristar"



it works fine using

Keppel

<Tristar


without the equal sign
