Drop-down help
I would like to create a drop down option for a column on a worksheet, let's say column G. For each row, there can be multiple entries in the G column, say 'apple', 'orange', 'grape'. There may be only one fruit or more than one fruit. Can I establish a tab in the header row on G so that the user can select 'apple' and then the worksheet will show only those rows with 'apple'? This is very much like filtering, but having a permanent, built-in filter just for that column. Please advise; thank you.

To filter in place dynamically that's with VBA, possible options are here How to Filter Data Based on Cell Value in Excel (4 Easy Methods)

Your question is not clear enough. Did you try to use Contains option from Text Filter?
