Hello All...

Code:
'**************** Build Zone 1 ********************
Sheets("Alignment").Select
With Range("B4:AG1300")
.AutoFilter Field:=12, Criteria1:="1-1"
Range("B4:AG1300").Copy
Sheets.Add(After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)).Name = "Zone 1"
Range("A3").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
.AutoFilter
Range("A1").Select
End With

The following code will find 1-1 for Criteria1, and is working.
My question:
What if I want to find all numbers in field 12 with numbers based upon "1-"?
For example, not only "1-1", but maybe "1-8" or maybe "1-0" etc...
How can I have a wildcard past the 1- to find all Criteria1 based upon "1-"

probably doesn't make a whole lot of sense, I don't know how to explain it...sorry
Thanks for the help
 

Excel Facts

Add Bullets to Range
Select range. Press Ctrl+1. On Number tab, choose Custom. Type Alt+7 then space then @ sign (using 7 on numeric keypad)
"1-*" will work but will return all entries that start with "1-" and not discriminate numbers or text. You may want to try "1-?" for one strictly one character after the "1-"
