By filtering information in a worksheet, you can find values quickly. You can filter on one or more columns of data. With filtering, you can control not only what you want to see, but what you want to exclude. You can filter based on choices you make from a list, or you can create specific filters to focus on exactly the data that you want to see.
You can search for text and numbers when you filter by using the Search box in the filter interface.
When you filter data, entire rows are hidden if values in one or more columns don't meet the filtering criteria. You can filter on numeric or text values, or filter by color for cells that have color formatting applied to their background or text.
How?

- On the Data tab, in the Sort & Filter group, click Filter.
- Click the arrow in the column header to display a list in which you can make filter choices.Note Depending on the type of data in the column, Microsoft Excel displays either Number Filters or Text Filters in the list.
