Thank you Sergei! The asterisks work beautifully. Problem solved.
While we're at it, I have another question. You can see in the sample data that there are instances of non-Latin script, I think Arabic and Chinese. Can Excel filter out or count data by the script used? I would like the ability to count the number of these instances, filter them out, or completely delete them.

If you'd like filter them
- apply filter to entire range
- Text filter -> Custom filter -> is greater than "z"
- to delete select filtered rows, delete rows from right-click menu
- clear filter
