Sorry, English isnt my mother tongue, hope youll be able to understand my
question anyway. I have a sheet with four columns of data. Three of them contain numbers and the last one contains a word like the example bellow. In Out Pending Name 1 3 2 Andrew 5 3 7 Mike 3 2 4 Andrew 2 7 1 Mary 4 5 1 Andrew Now, if I want to quickly find all rows containing the word Andrew I go to Edit, click Find and click replace and type Andrew into the Find what space and Andrew into the replace with space. After that I format the fonts to desired color and press ok and then click replace all and all Andrews get colored or whatever I chose to format. How do I go from here if I want to have only the Andrew rows? Is there any why to do that? Thank you very much for helping me. I appreciate it a lot! M. Larsen |
