Show data by default without hitting Reapply in Sort&Filter menu

Copper Contributor

Hello,

Could you please help me out with automating a filter as follows.

 

1. I populate data into Sheet 1, choosing a Response from column D. It can be Yes, Unknown, No.

2. In sheet 2 I want to automatically display "No" and "Unknown" responses.

Right now, I have to click on the Filter and Hit OK every time a "No" or "Uknown" response is added in sheet 1.

Is there a solution for the "No" and "Unknown" answers to be automatically displayed in Sheet 2 right after filling them in Sheet 1? 

Thank you in advance!

Do you have Microsoft 365 or Office 2021? If so, you can use the FILTER function

Thank you for reaching out so quickly - much appreciated!

I have an 0365 license...

I tried using the Filter function, however, I am sure I am missing something... 

I only need to bring and refresh automatically the questions answered with No and Unknown..

You should refer to the sheet in the conditions too, and use + instead of *:

 

=FILTER(Worksheet!B2:D1000, (Worksheet!D2:D1000="No")+Worksheet!D2:D1000="Unknown"), "")

Thank you, Hans! I have applied the formula with success.
