Hi all, I hope someone can help me.

I have a data sheet called "RAW" with numerous columns.

I want to be able to search through the RAW data set, pull out all rows which match a specific value in a cell.

So, column "D" in RAW contains a VRN (they are not all ordered as per my screenshot), and I want to search the RAW data based on the VRN (Column "D")

I have a sheet named "AB001AB. I want to copy all rows with the VRN "AB001AB" into the sheet "AB001AB". Then all rows with the VRN "AB002AB into the sheet "AB002AB"

Any help much appreciated. I can imagine this being quite a lengthy formula.

Thanks

In that case it can't find anything in column D with SY04AB.
Check that there are no leading/trailing spaces in col D on the Raw sheet. Also should it be a zero or the letter O?

Apologies, my mistake I referenced the wrong column.

So that has dumped the data. Is there anyway to format it into a readable format.
Is it possible to format into a table, or can you only view it as is? I tried to format as a table and I got #SPILL?

How to change case of text in Excel?
Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney
Unfortunately I don't think you can use that type of formula in table.
You can format columns to display the data in a certain way, but that's about it.

I am going to have to re-open this thread. Is there another way without using =FILTER?

I did this sheet on my own computer with Office 365, turns out my workplace are using Office 2016 which does not support the FILTER function
