Advanced filter unique values in Col A, based on 2 criteria in Col B !

Hi - I've scanned through all the relative posts and iterations, and have probably started to confuse myself!

I can get the advanced filter to filter my data on column N to two criteria and copy all rows to a separate worksheet, but I only want to copy rows where both criteria are met.

In other words Col A has an order number, and Col N a schedule of rates code applied for valuation purposes - so what I want to do is highlight those orders where a combination of both rates have been applied.

I hope that makes sense, and would be grateful if any one can signpost me to a solution. I often scour the threads for a solution but am mindful that I often create fairly crude <acronym title="visual basic for applications" style="border-width: 0px 0px 1px; border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); cursor: help; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); background-color: rgb(250, 250, 250);">vba</acronym>.

Thanks - Neil
 

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
Okay so my earlier post wasn't well constructed and lazy of me ! Using the following code, I can filter out a record (with numerous occurrences, 1 per code applied to it - code being a alpha numeric code relating to completed works).
So a works order number in Col A (134567/1) might appear twice with 2 separate alpha numeric on seperate lines (HS898001, HS357890).

What I want to do is filter the data using set criteria for the codes used, and then look for occurences where 2 particular codes have been used together on the same job. Almost like filtering the works order number by instances of more than 1.

Code:
Sub searchtext1()
    
    Dim ws1 As Worksheet, ws2 As Worksheet, ws3 As Worksheet
    
    Set ws1 = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(1)    'assumes raw data is always first sheet
    Set ws2 = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(2)
    Set ws3 = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(3)
    
    If ws1.FilterMode Then ws1.ShowAllData
    
    ws3.UsedRange.ClearContents
    'ws2.Activate
    
    ws1.Range("A1").CurrentRegion.AdvancedFilter _
        Action:=xlFilterCopy, _
        CriteriaRange:=ws2.Range("N1", ws2.Range("N" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)), _
        CopyToRange:=ws3.Range("A1")
        
    If ws1.FilterMode Then ws1.ShowAllData
    
End Sub

Any help is much appreciated !
