I need to type up a list if I want to use

(1) DateFilterAutoFilter or
(2) DataSubtotals

A sample list:

Month Units
Jan 100
Jan 200
Feb 100
Feb 400
Mar 300
etc. etc.

I find the following interesting.

To do (1) AutoFilter, I have to actually **create** a list i.e.
DataListCreate List ......

If I want to do (2) Subtotals, I **don't** have to do DataListCreate List
....... If I do, Subtotals on the menu won't even be highlighted.

Although both (1) and (2) require a list, the definition of a list appears
different.

Have I missed anything? Welcome feedback and comments. Please don't ask me
to read help because I have done that. I have also watched the AutoFilter
demo and actually tried the commands. Thanks for reading and please correct
me if I am wrong. I want to analyze and experiment "sort" and "validation"
in the data menu at another time so that I don't get too confused right now.
But please feel free to voice any comments regarding these two commands in
terms of list.
