RE: How do I filter for more than 2 "does contain" criteria

Does your list of words in the data area have a column heading?

Example:
D11: Keywords
D12: word1
D13: word2
D14: word3

etc

Criteria range:
D4: Keywords
D5: *word2* (or just word2, if you want an exact match)

"Keywords" over the criteria range tells Advanced Filter to look in the
column with that heading in the data range.

Does that help?

Hi Ron,

thanks a lot for you inputs, but this does not work in my case.

I have a column called keywords.

I added :

D12: word1
D13: word2
D14: word3

The search criteria is the following:

D4: keywords
D5: *word2*

If I start the advanced search as you explained I see only word1. Word2 and
word3 are removed. However only word2 should be visible.

I don't know what is going wrong.

Thanks,

Alex

I want to filter a table with at least 5 "does contain" criteria.

However this is not possible with the "Auto Filter" and I couldn't figure
out how the "advanced filtering" worked.

Can anybody give me some ideas?

Thanks,

Alex
