Hi Christine,

Thank you for your question.

You can filter a table by clicking within the table and using the AutoFilter menu. This can be found under Data > Filter > AutoFilter. This is where you get the drop down options to pick from a selection. There are other filters as well, but this is the easiest and quickest one to use. Have a go see if it works and if you get stuck just get back to me!

Excel tip:

Turn off AutoComplete in Excel

You may have noticed when typing into your spreadsheets that if you start to enter labels that begin with the same letters as a label that has been previously entered in the same spreadsheet, Excel will try and automatically complete the text for you. This feature is called AutoComplete.

If you find this feature more annoying than useful, you can turn it off by:

1. Going to Tools - Options.

2. Select the Edit tab.

3. Remove the tick from next to the "Enable AutoComplete for cell values" option.

4. Click OK.
