Autofilter Based On Criteria From Other Workbook
May 24, 2008
I am looking for a way to search through several workbooks for a row containing the user's inputted data. I was thinking I could Autofilter each workbook but having trouble getting the code to reference a cell value in another workbook.
Sub Autofilter()
Windows("file.xls").Activate
With "Sheet1"
.AutoFilterMode = True
.Range("A1:EV1").Autofilter Field:=1, Criteria1:"Workbooks("reference.xls"). Sheets(1).Cells(A2)"
End With
End Sub
I would like to have file.xls Autofiltered by the value in cell A2 which is in workbook reference.xls. Am I going about this the wrong way? Auto Merged Post Until 24 Hrs Passes;Here is the code repaired so it doesn't through the syntax error:
Sub Autofilter()
Windows("file.xls").Activate
With "Sheet1"
.AutoFilterMode = True
.Range("A1:EV1").Autofilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=Workbooks("reference.xls").Worksheets("Sheet1").Range(A2).Value
End With
End Sub
But it still isn't working. Something is causing trouble at the With statement...

I am trying to make an "intelligent" auto filter that with filter with increasing restriction until a certain criteria is met.
The list runs from A5:G20. In coloumn G is the number of hours associated with each event. And in A1 I have the percentage of items showing/whole list so it I have 15 rows on the list, and I filter so that only 5 are showing, cell a1=33%
How can I make a macro that will autofilter until the the a1=5%
Like having filter criter = equal or greater then 1 hour,
if a1 > 5%
Then criteria + 1 hour
If A1=<5%, then stop.
basically a seed criteria of 1 hour, adding 1 hour until the value in a1 = 5%

I have a lot of data that I want to put into another workbook so as to free up space and make the workbook efficient, however, I do not know how to open a workbook in VBA.
Once this workbook is open, I then want to sum the data based on set criteria.

I have been struggling to setup these two workbooks for a bit now, and I can't for the life of me figure out a formula to do what I need to do. Essentially, I have one workbook that contains a list of purchase records for my company, sortable by Date, Vendor, Price, etc. and one workbook that has a sheet for every vendor. What I need is a formula that will search column B for a vendor, Allied Waste for example, and transfer all the information within the rows for every instance that vendor is found to the new workbook.
This is basically just a way where I can input information once in one workbook, where the sheets are divided by month, and the info will automatically transfer to another workbook, where the sheets are divided by vendor.

I have tabs within my workbook that are pulling from other tabs in the same workbook. There are 30-40 tabs, and only 10-15 are used at a time. Is there a way to hide tabs that are not being used? If I do a calculation in A1 and it's greater than 0, I'd like the tab that is pulling from A1 to be visible. If A1 is 0, then I'd like to hide it.

I have a work book with several work sheets, what I'm trying to do or find a a method of coping data from one sheet to another provided the data in any given cell matches a specific criteria. Example below:
Work sheet 1 is the primary sheet in the work book on this sheet I have a cell with a text value (Bob). Ok on the next work sheet 2 I need to search for a cell that contains (Bob). When or if it is found I need information from other cells in that row (where Bob was found) copied to work sheet 1 in a specified row and colum. If it is not found a negative value can be placed in the specified cells.

I have two workbooks. I use excel 2003
I need to update the master workbook with data from the invoices workbook using the following criteria.
In the master workbook column C has unique job numbers.
In the invoice workbook column F has unique job numbers.
Both worksheets are the first worksheet in both workbooks.
If the job number in the invoice workbook is already in the master workbook do nothing.
If the job number is in the master workbook but not the invoice workbook then delete the entire row from the master workbook.
If the job number is not in the master workbook add it to the master workbook.
To complicate matters the master workbook is shared. It is my understanding that shared workbooks can't contain the macros needed ? It would be preferable that the master sheet had them but if not ...

I have a workbook that is used to track job estimates.
What I would like to have is a macro that would search through column N on the original file and if any of the cells have "No RFE" in them - generate a new workbook with only this list that would include any data from columns C-U copied from the original file.
I've been seaching the forum, but so far have had little luck finding something that suits my needs.

I'll soon have an ETL process that will load about 150K rows into an Excel workbook. On of the columns will be the end user's userid.
I need to autofilter that external workbook based on the end user's userid, copy that range, clear a worksheet on the current workbook, and copy that range to the current worksheet.
For example, see the attached workbooks. I need to replace the data in Source.xlsb!Cases with the data in Output.xlsb!Case_List, filtered on my userid, which we'll call foo.

I can select the top cell in column "F" after filtering by multiple columns using VBA and arrays, but now want to I want to use the top cell in column "F" to search for all other equipment that uses this item.
E.g. remove filter, and reapply autofilter to column "F" based on selected cell as per below VBA
Note: Row 1 contains command buttons and row 2 Headers.

Say you have a long list of data, and you go to Data menu --> Filter --> AutoFilter
And then you want to use the Custom AutoFilter. Here's a screenshot:

Been looking at various options. Just want something to simply show the autofilter critera (1 & 2 or how every many there are) in a text box. The range being filtered is column A : M.
Basically taking this further, want to use the criteria of column C to lookup an email address e.g.
'C' is filtered by "Company 96"
Lookup "Company 96" from sheet2 range A:B, with column A containing name, and column B containing email address

My problem is following: I have a list of data that are classified according to a particular character, and I want to copy (with auto filter through the macro) the relevant information to the appropriate place in the sheet where it belongs. That's no problem. The problem is that if I want to copy data, classified by a character that is not listed in the table (that is not in the filtering criteria), then all the data are copied to the appropriate place. But I do not want to copy in this case nothing. How should such a macro look like?
Find attached an example : example.xlsm

I have some data which I want to apply multiple criteria to for a particular column. Searched around on the internet and it would appear I should use an array and pass that to my criteria. What I can't find an answer for is how to say "does not equal any of the values within the array"
Code currently is:
Code:
Dim NumberFilter_Array(0 to 2)
NumberFilter_Array(0) = 2
NumberFilter_Array(1) = 9
[Code].....
I've tried variations for that in red but can't get it to work, how to correct the line in red to filter for none of the values in the array NumberFilter_Array?

I am trying to use VBA to set an autofilter that hides all zeros in Column AL and then excludes all values in Column E that start with "312" or "502". For some reason I can't get this to work as expected, it still continues to display unwanted values in Column E.
HTML Code:
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$CS" & LastRow).AutoFilter Field:=5, Criteria1:=Array("312*", "502*")
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$CS" & LastRow).AutoFilter Field:=38, Criteria1:=Array("0")

I have one master sheet of data, with a large number of fields and data.
I need to turn this master data into individual records, each record exisiting as an individual worksheet - lets call it a 'U'. The U is a template sheet which has calculations and lookups built into it to complete further information. The completed U's are then used by a number of people for different reasons. There are 3 main 'flavours' of these sheets which have slightly different uses.
I've gone from knowing nothing about macros to having learned enough about them in the last week or so to populate each individual sheet with the data, and save the new file in the location I want it to go.
What I want to do now is filter the fields displayed by the individual U sheets, as not every field is applicable to each 'flavour'. I've marked up the rows as to the appropriate flavour - e.g. Row 17 is applicable to 'P' 'F' and 'R' ( Cell which is auto filtered contains PFR), but Row 18 is only 'P' and 'F' (Cell contains PF).
I've gone through the master file and identified each entry as a the appropriate flavour - to summarise what I'd like to do now:
1) Automatically populate the template file with the relevant data. (which my macro will do)
2) Use an autofilter to filter the rows equal to the data in the reference sheet so these are the only ones displayed. Eg. Reference sheet says 'P', so I want to filter the U sheet where autofilter column contains the letter 'P'
3) Rename the file and save as my reference in the location I want it to (which the macro is doing).
Here's what I've got:
Range("CF3").Select
Selection.Copy
Windows("USS iss1.xls").Activate
Range("G158").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=ActiveCell, Operator:=xlAnd
(where CF3 = the cell in the master data with the flavour in it, "USS iss1" is the template U file, G158 is a spare cell and Autofilter Field 1 contains the row reference which tells me which data applies to which flavours).
I've tried using the macro recorder, which when I paste the value in the autofilter/contains box records it as the value I've just put in rather than a copy of the reference cell. I've tried
Criteria1:=*ActiveCell*
and other variations on the same theme, but to no avail - I get "Compile error: Expected:expression".

You posted this code and it works well
could u advise how to display just the criteria ie no heading, no :, no =, and when it displays the criteria could it fill the cell with a colour. When filter is set to "all" give a blank cell
This would over come lots complaints from operators not realizing that filters are on because they can not find the silly blue button.
Are microsoft aware of is and are they changing it in the new release.

I'm actually trying to write a Macro that applies autofilters and the information just doesn't show! The autofilter is properly applied and everything, but the only visible row is the header. The code is the following.
mes = Month([M2])
filfecha = Range("M2").Text
Columns("E").AutoFit
Rows("1:1").Select
Selection.AutoFilter
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=5, Criteria1:=filfecha

I would like to do some search function. As I know, to have "contains" in criteria, I can simply add *. But then, the asterisk(*) doesnt work with forms. I want my user to put the word they are looking for in a form then the system will select from a different worksheet. Below is my coding and bold is my biggest problem.
Sub Advanced_Find()
company = Workbooks("CONTRACT").Sheets("Advanced Find"). Cells(9, 3).Value
Workbooks("CONTRACT").Sheets("Sheet2").Activate
Range("C3"). AutoFilter Field:=3, Criteria1:=*company*, Operator:=xlAnd
Sheets("Sheet2").Rows(3).Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.Copy
Application.WindowState = xlMinimized
Workbooks("CONTRACT").Sheets("Advanced Find").Activate
Workbooks("CONTRACT").Sheets("Advanced Find").Cells(15, 1).Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
End Sub()

I want to write a VBA routine to compare the Autofilter criteria found on two different worksheets. If the criteria is not the same I will display an error message. The range the Autofilter is working on could be one to many columns. The criteria could be anything from selecting a value from the autofilter list to multiple columns using a custom autofilter with multiple conditions.

I'm trying to make the criteria in an autofilter bit of code be the value of a cell in my spreadhseet. I have named the cell and would like to reference the named range rather than the cell address if possible.
Exp = Range("ExpenseGroup")
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:=Exp
Sheets("KPICharts").Select
Range("A1").Select
ExpenseGroup is my range which is located on sheet "cntrl" cell "G5"
When I run my code it referes to line 1 and says" Function call on lefthand side of assignment must return a Varient or Object".

I have the following code based on Multiple user-selected dropdowns. What I need to add is I believe a Volatile Application, where if the user chooses the option "ALL" OR leaves blank (doesn't pick anything from the dropdown,) the respective column does not get Autofilter applied. I have 6 different criteria, including a Start Date and End Date. So, the final result I'm trying to get is to have autofilter applied to only those columns for which the user selected a specific option.
Dim dDate As Date
Dim strDate As String
Dim lDate As Long
Dim rDate As Range
Worksheets("Data").AutoFilterMode = False
Set rDate = Sheets("Summary").Range("B3")
If Not IsDate(rDate) Then 'Check if valid
MsgBox "Non valid date and time"
Exit Sub
End If

I am trying to autofilter more than 2 criteria, for example 3 criteria.
Below code works fine as the criteria are exact match strings
VB:
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$O$25").AutoFilter Field:=7, Criteria1:=Array( _
"=apple", "=orange", "=grape"), Operator:=xlFilterValues
However below code does not work when the criteria are strings with wildcard "*"
VB:
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$O$25").AutoFilter Field:=7, Criteria1:=Array( _
"=*apple*", "=*orange*", "=*grape*"), Operator:=xlFilterValues
I need a wildcard * indicating strings contains instead of exact match the criteria.
Data looks like this
Fruits
apple, orange, peach
orange, strawberry
banana, peach
grape, peach
After autofilter, any rows that contains one of the criteria(in this case orange, apple, grape) will remain.

I would like to know that is there any way of recording criteria when I filtered data.
For example; A1,A2,A3,A4,A5,A6,A7,A8,A9,A10 and A11
I have this data such as Data,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 (starting from Range A2). Now when I created auto filter as
VB:
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$2:$A$11" _
).AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=Array("2", "3", "4", "5"), Operator:=xlFilterValues
And this criteria can be changed by the user anytime. Now for some reason sometimes I trigger a code which works under Function key(F8) and it refresh some data from the database. Just before it gets the data, it will remove the filter such as :
VB:
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$A$11" _
).AutoFilter Field:=1
My problem is after I run my code (under F8), I want to filter back with the same criteria. Is there anyway that i record my criteria in any cell whenever I filter?

I have a Excel-spreadsheet (sheet1) which has dates in column G. I am looking for autofiltering data by year or month based on date value in column G. In my userform I have two comboboxes, one has years from 2009-2014 and another one are months from Jan-Dec. How can I write a code that shows only rows which match either year or month value based on combobox selection?

but not working.
