If I have filtered on rows and I want to paste data on a particular row, why does it copy in the cells inbetween that I havent filtered on?

RE: Filters

Hi Bhumee,

Thank you for the forum question.

When you filter data in Excel the only thing Excel is doing is hiding rows, so you only can see the rows you have asked for.

When you paste, Excel do not ignore the hidden rows. You will have to sort your data so you have no hidden rows between the data you want to use when you filter your list. You can use the Sort tool on the Data tab.

I hope this make sense.


Kind regards
