Autofilter: Highlight Criteria Column/Field

Sep 15, 2006

When activating Autofilter in a wide table, the only way to determine which criteria field was selected is to try and identify which drop-down arrow has become blue. When working on a laptop, it is rather difficult to identify the difference between the black arrows and the blue ones. Is there a way to have a macro or event procedure that will cause the selected criteria field (or fields) change its background color (into yellow, for example)? This way, the yellow fields will "stand out"… No more searching...

AutoFilter Multiple Field Automatically (and Show All If Criteria Is Blank)

Jun 11, 2014

I am looking to adapt a piece of code (originally created by Ger Plante) so that it autofilters multiple columns of a table. I have three data validated lists that need to search 3 different columns in the table and filter accordingly, but also show all if no hits are made (hence why Ger Plante's code) was perfect in most respects. I would ideally like to keep the code as a Worksheet_Change event, but can deal with it being run as a normal Macro via a button if this is necessary.

[URL]....

VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B1")) Is Nothing Then
Range("A5:C5").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=IIf(Trim(Range("B1").Text) = "", "<>", "=") & Range("B1").Text
End If
End Sub

Highlight Rows Meeting Multiple Column Criteria

Apr 17, 2008

I have a large file of invoices, and some have been paid. The problem is, sometimes it is not paid against the correct invoice, so I have a lot of credit and debit that should offset each other. I want to go through the sheet and highlight all the rows that has a matching ID and an a 0 value when total amount column was added up to another row. I would like it so that it highlights a different color for every pair of offsetting amount, but the same color highlight is fine too.

Increase Autofilter Field By 1 Across The Project

Jul 10, 2014

I'm trying to modify a worksheet and I'm having mental block. Basically I have the A:N columns full of data, and about 40 helper columns after that. All the helper columns being referenced by many macros.

I now have to add one more data column after the N column, so the helper columns will be cut and pasted one cell to the right.

The question is, how do I efficiently modify the code that looks at the helper columns to take into account the "1 field to the right" movement of the helper columns? Here is an example of the code

[Code] .....

There are tens of references across the project for every helper column so doing it manually is impossible.

Using Autofilter With Named Range - What To Put In Field

Apr 23, 2012

I am writing a code that will filter based on a named range. My named range is "Region," and it is currently in column B, but may be in Column C, D, E, etc., based on additional columns that the user of this sheet may add in the future.

I first had code like this (before using a named range):

HTML Code:
Sub CopyRegions()
Dim LastRow As Long

With ActiveSheet
LastRow = ActiveSheet.Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Range("B8").Select
ActiveSheet.Range("$8:$" & LastRow).AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:="Europe"

But then I named column B to "Region," and so I want to do the same thing as above, but I don't know what to put where it has the number "2" - "AutoFilter Field:=2" because it may or may not be the second column in the future.

Highlight 1st Listbox Item After Tab To Field

Jul 14, 2009

I have created a form, with a textbox and a listbox, that loads when the workbook opens.

As the listbox is the 2nd field on the form, I'd like for the 1st item in the listbox to be highlighted once the user tabs to this field from the textbox field, in the event that the 1st item is actually the item the user wants to select. Currently, once you tab to the listbox field, the listbox item has a dotted line around it (forgive my not knowing the correct term to use for this; I would guess the item has focus at this point, it's just not selected), but the item is not actually highlighted. If I use the arrow keys to scroll up or down, then the first item can ultimately actually be highlighted.

I've search this message board, but was unable to come up with a solution. I assume I must not have been using the best search terms.

Currently (a part of) the form's code is:


Dim txtbox_EmplName As String
Dim lbox_Div As String
form_TERdata.txtbox_EmplName.SetFocus

I'm certain this must be simple, but I haven't been able to find a solution. What code would I need to add or change, and where?

Change/Move Pivot Table Row Field To Column Field

Apr 23, 2008

In building my pivot table my data that I want to show in the column area is showing up as rows stacked on top of each other. In the column section I'm trying to show Total Budgeted Amount next to Total Actual Amount but on the layout it's showing the two stacked on top of each other is there some kind of hidden key that I'm missing?

Autofilter Macro: Goto The Next Criteria Down Until Certain Criteria Is Reached

Oct 22, 2008

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%

MSG Box Autofilter Criteria

Jul 23, 2009

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

Macro - AutoFilter And Criteria

Aug 7, 2014

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?

Autofilter With Multiple Criteria?

Oct 5, 2012

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?

AutoFilter With Multiple Criteria

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")

Use Cell As Autofilter Criteria

Aug 18, 2008

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".

Show Autofilter Criteria

Apr 16, 2006

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.

Autofilter Criteria From Textbox

Mar 5, 2007

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

Comparing Autofilter Criteria

Mar 16, 2007

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.

Range Name In Autofilter Criteria

Jun 22, 2007

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".

Display Criteria Of Autofilter

Dec 31, 2007

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

Autofilter More Than 2 Criteria On Strings With Wildcard

Mar 12, 2013

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.

Storing Autofilter Criteria In A Range

Sep 17, 2013

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?
