Shared Documents/Spreadsheets

Concerns about a) shared spreadsheets and ensuring people can edit but not damage formulas and b) filtering/sorting on databases with multiple functions.

RE: Shared Documents/Spreadsheets

Hi Alix,

Thank you for the forum question.

Please watch the video to learn how to protect your formulas.

About:
b) filtering/sorting on databases with multiple functions.

Do you mean by multiple conditions?

To filter and sort data in Excel by multiple conditions, you can use:

- The AutoFilter feature to filter tables based on values in one or more columns. You can filter using different criteria like numbers, text, dates, and formulas.

- The Advanced Filter feature to filter tables using multiple criteria ranges, showing only rows that meet all specified conditions.

- The Sort feature to sort data in one or more columns, in either ascending or descending order.

- Excel functions like FILTER(), SORT() and SORTBY() to dynamically filter and sort data based on formulas and criteria.

For example, to sort a table by two columns, you can:

```
=SORTBY(A1:B10,B1:B10,A1:A10,TRUE)
```

This will first sort by column B in ascending order, then by column A.

Please provide me with more details about what you want to filter and sort.

Kind regards
