autofilter is not working

[waxb18]

Can you guys see anything wrong with this code

The filer gets turned on but doesnt actually filter anything

Range("A1:N1").Select
Selection.AutoFilter
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$K$289").AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:="=C*"

Rows("2:2000").Copy

Are you sure the exact value, =C*, is in your column B?
