    Multiple search criteria from table

    Hello All, apologies if this is in the wrong section but I believe I need VBA for this.

    Is there a way to search a table by typing into a search box (ideally placed above the table), with the ability to type multiple search terms and filter out all rows which do NOT contain those terms?

    Example attached.

    I have looked everywhere but after days of trying cannot get anything to work correctly! I believe I would need VBA and the search box would be an active X control.

    Good Luck! and thanks!

    Mickey

    See attached. Multiple search parameters separated by a comma. Note: There are other options but since you asked for a specific result.

    Hi there!
    Do you have difficulties using the Excel Filter functionality?
    Click anywhere inside your table and click Ctrl+Shift+L
    .. and don't forget to have fun!

    It works just fine. Did you actually run the macro after you typed stuff into the textbox?
