VBA Code to Filter Data in Excel
Here is an easy reference code which filters data in the sheet. In the code, we have filtered the data in three steps.
Step 1: Remove existing filter from the sheet (if any). This code ensures if there is already a filter applied then the same is removed first
Step 2: Apply filter on 5th column (E) of the data where Country is Japan
Step 3: Apply filter on 4th column (D) of the data where Department ID is 711
'This function can be used to filter data
Public Sub FilterData()
'
'Reset/Remove filter from sheet
Sheet1.AutoFilterMode = False
'
'Apply first filter on 5th column (E) in the data where Country is Japan
Sheet1.Range("A1:G" & Sheet1.UsedRange.Row).AutoFilter 5, "Japan"
'Apply second filter on 4th column (D) in the data where Department ID is 711
Sheet1.Range("A1:G" & Sheet1.UsedRange.Row).AutoFilter 4, "711"
'
End Sub
To use this code in your Excel file, follow below steps:
- Open an Excel file
- Press Alt+F11
