Use of Advance Filter in MS Excel

Advance filter available in "Data" ribbon is used to filter your data with some complex criteria. To use advance filter option you have to create a criteria for your filter. The criteria table should have the same set of headings with respect to your data list. Scenario - We would like to filter Quarter 1 sales from state Karnataka in the below given data set.

Step 1: Have your data set ready












Step 2: Create your criteria

Step 3: Go to "Data" Ribbon and click "Advance Filter" option. This will pop out the following dialog box. You will get an option called Action. Select "Copy to another location" radio button then select the data set range from which you want to filter your criteria and then select the criteria which you would like to filter. Once this is done locate the place in the same sheet or any other sheet where you want to have the output. Hit OK and there you go you will get the desired result.
