Hi Boris,
I meant try it on the pivot table results because that is what you are trying
to modify the results of. Which filter -- choose something that works.
Might try making a helper column something like
H1: =SUM(A1:G1)
Or something that recognizes that there are 5 numeric columns
so you don't suppress descriptive information on rows with only titles
H1: =AND(SUM(A1:G1)=0, COUNT(A1:g1)=5)
The helper column would make it simple to use a basic filter.
select column H, data, filter, autofilter
click on the dropdown for the filter in column H and choose False
To get rid of the filter (just as important as knowing how to filter)
Data, Filter, autofiter (will remove the checkmark an the filter) :
