Filtering an entire workbook

Hello
We have a workbook in which all worksheets are formatted the same (same column headers).
Is there any way we can apply filters through the whole set of worksheets please?
Thanks

RE: Filtering an entire workbook

Hi Liz

Thank you for your question

I have explored the sheet grouping tools and it seems that all filtering options are disbaled when sheets are grouped together. Thus it seems that it is not possible to filter several sheets at the same time, using standard excel tools

It is however possible to write a macro that would do this. This would however take the best part of a day to complete and is beyond the scope of the forum. We could however provide assistance on a consulatncy basis. If you wish to go down this route, please contact our enquiries team

Regards
Stephen

Excel tip:

No Zeros

Want all the zeros in your worksheet to appear blank? Choose Tools/Options, Click on the View Tab, Deselect the Zero Values Option, Click OK.
Easy wasn't it? But be aware that these cells are not actually blank, they still contain the value zero. This is important because certain functions (ie AVERAGE) make a distinction between blank cells and those with a zero value.
