Thread: Filtering With VBA Macro

  1. #1

    Filtering With VBA Macro

    Afternoon,

    I have uploaded an example workbook that I want to filter the column 'Bill Frequancy' with some vba. I need to filter any bill frequancy between 02 and 10. I've tried using the autofilter but this always returns incorrect results.

    Can anyone help.

    Regards,

    Mattster

    It may not need a macro. The data in column C is 'numbers stored as text'. You can quickly convert them to proper numbers by putting the number 1 in say E1, copy it, then select C2:C27, Edit|PasteSpecial|Multiply|OK. Then delete E1.
    Now your autofilter should work.

    Another way of converting them to numbers: If you have your Tools|Options|Error checking|Number stored as text checkbox ticked, when you select C2:C27, you'll see a small box with an exclamation mark which you can click, choose Convert to number. Job done.
