Hi,

I would like to make a slicer filter that will take each word from a cell containing multiple word (divided by comma or whatever) and make a filtering based on only one unique word. Like a "search by/containing" but with available words appearing in the slicer.

For instance:

Cell A2: Ana
Cell A3: Ana, Michael
Cell A4: John
Cell A5: Michael

The slicer filter must have separate buttons to filter just for: Ana, Michael, John. As opposed to now, when I get a filter button equal to each cell.

Thank you!
