Data-Filter on Multiple Entries in Cell
Hi, I am new to the board and using XL2002.
There are instances when I enter more than 1 entry in a cell. For instance, cell A2 can have the 12 months of 2004 separated by a carriage return (Alt-Enter). When I apply, a Data-Filter-Autofilter on Col A, I would like all multiple entries to appear vertically ie: Apr-04 Aug-04 Dec-04 etc... Right now, the dropdown shows: Jan-04 Chr(10) Feb-04 Chr(10) etc... Thanks, XLML --- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com/

Data-Filter on Multiple Entries in Cell
The items one cell won't appear on multiple lines in the AutoFilter
dropdown. You could create one record for each month, and repeat the data in the other columns in each record. XLML wrote: Hi, I am new to the board and using XL2002.
