I have a long table and usually I want to filter the asset numbers (The first column and rows from row 4 to row 3080) by more than one value. The excel custom text filter can't filter by more than two texts. I wonder if it is possible to filter by more than two. I know it might be possible in VBA.
Example, filter the column A by "85254","8782A" and "GH0012"
You can achieve the same simply by using Advanced Filter option. It is smart enough to filter your data on multiple columns and more than two values.
You just need to create Filter Criteria section where the column names must be similar to the column names of your data range and this could be in the same sheet or another. In criteria range, you can specify any number of values and multiple columns.
I have illustrated this in below screenshot of my example. Click OK button on advanced filter dialog and your date would be filtered out.
