To filter by using the FILTER
function in Excel, follow these steps:
Type =FILTER(
to begin your filter formula
Type the address for the range of cells that contains the data that you want to filter, such as B1:C50
Type a comma, and then type the condition for the filter, such as C3:C50>3
(To set a condition, first type the address of the "criteria column" such as B1:B
, then type an operator symbol such as greater than (>
), and then type the criteria, such as the number 3
.
Type a closing parenthesis and then press enter on the keyboard. Your entire formula will look like this: =FILTER(B1:C50,C1:C50>3)
Here are the Excel Filters formulas:
Filter by a number
=FILTER(A3:B12, B3:B12>0.7)
Filter by a cell value
=FILTER(A3:B12, B3:B12<F1)
Filter by a text string
=FILTER(A3:B12, B3:B12="Late")
Filter where NOT equal to
=FILTER(A3:E1000, B3:B1000<>"Bob")
Filter by date
=FILTER(A3:C12,C3:C12<G1) (Date entered in cell G1)
=FILTER(A3:C12,C3:C12<DATE(2019,6,1))
Filter by multiple conditions
=FILTER(A3:C12,(B3:B12="Late")*(C3:C12="Active")) (AND logic)
=FILTER(A3:C12, (B3:B12="Late")+(C3:C12="Active")) (OR logic)
Filter from another sheet
=FILTER('Sheet Name'!A3:B12,'Sheet Name'!B3:B12="Full Time")
The Excel FILTER function:
=FILTER(A3:B12, B3:B12=F1)
