I HAVE THE FOLLOWING PROBLEM:

When i do an autofilter on a column and I choose a value, it will normally show automatically how many records of that value are found. But on other computers it doesn't do this. How can I toggle on/off this feature. Is this different between versions of excel?

Hi ducati:
The setting is set on specific computer. To see the COUNT of items filtered, this is what you do ...
1) As Dave Hawley and sen_edp suggested make sure that STATUBAR view is on.
2) Right click on the status bar and a context based menu will open up -- this will allow you to toggle between NONE, SUM, COUNT, AVERAGE, MAX, MIN, ...
3) Select the cells about which you want to see the chosen statistic on the STATUS BAR
4) Enjoy the view

HTH
Plese post if it works for you ... otherwise explain a little further and we will take it from there!

I believe it was Mike W. who told me (us) that the AutoFilter "count" wouldn't work if the filtered range included formulas. That may be the thing that is happening.

I think what may have happened is that the
statusbar has been set by some other application.....

What you will need to do is return it back to Excel.....eg

Sub AutoFilter_DisplayOn()
Application.StatusBar = False
End Sub


To turn the AutoFilter statusdisplay off then

Sub AutoFilter_DisplayOff()
Application.StatusBar = ""
End Sub

OR place in any other Text to replace what is
currently displayed.....

Juan, I'm afraid you have been mislead, formuals will not effect this. I would be very dissapointed if such a feature was effected by this. After all Excel is a Spreadsheet program!


Ivan, I think you maybe onto something there.

you are right, it has nothing to do with formulas. It has something to do with the statusbar, the view, but I still don't know what!!!!
