How to Filter in locally installed Excel

About

In this article we will review how to filter data using Excel locally installed.

Environment

Excel locally installed on your computer.

Steps

  • Navigate to Excel as you normally would.
  • Select the column you wish to filter by clicking its corresponding letter.

  • In the ribbon on the Data tab you will click on the Filter button that has a funnel icon. 

  • Note that a little down arrow is now displayed at the top cell of the column you selected at the right.

  • Click on that arrow. You will see your filter options at the bottom. 
  • Adjust as desired, click Apply Filter and your data will be filtered accordingly.

Hint: (You can only filter by one column at a time.)
Hint: (You can search for the item you wish to filter by. This is handy if you have a lot of options in the column.)
