Auto Apply Filter Functionality

Why doesn't the Windows version of Excel include 'auto-apply' functionality when selecting date to filter (Excel for Mac does)?

    Welcome to your Excel discussion space!

    for your Information

     

    About the issue:

    Untested, I'm not sure if it works with Excel for web... The proof of the pudding is in the eating :)).

    If it is Excel for web, a possible solution would be to clear the filter before saving the file. The easiest way to do this is with VBA (you would have to use a subscription version in advance to insert the code into the workbook): In the ThisWorkbook code module:

     

     

     

     

    In das Codemodul "DieseArbeitsmappe":
    
    Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
    
      ActiveSheet.ShowAllData
    
    End Sub

     

     

     

     

     

    Hope I was able to help you with this information.
