Filter 2 separate columns in Excel
Can I filter more than one column in one worksheet? For example, if I have
paper size in one column and project number in another, I need to list all A4 drawings with project number 1234. As far as I can see it's only possible to have one filter per worksheet. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Martin |

Thanks Martin No you can filter on two columns - it seems that you need to select ALL the columns in the list.. -- Asking a question?

Filter 2 separate columns in Excel
list all A4 drawings with project number 1234
In xl2003 Just Autofilter & choose in sequence, eg: Go to Paper size col droplist: Choose: A4 This filters all A4 lines Then go to Project number col droplist, Choose: 1234 to get the subfilter results (You can also filter 1234 first, then subfilter A4 - should give you identical results) -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 Downloads:20,500 Files:365 Subscribers:65 xdemechanik --- "Martin" wrote: Can I filter more than one column in one worksheet?
