Good day all,

i have a question. I use excel filters all day long.
I usually apply it to huge data tables on many columns simultaneously.

It would help if i have a method or Macro which will remove all active filters except from the columns of active cell.

Let me explain !!!
Say i have applied filters in 6 columns
now i need to change the filter settings in 4 columns
Currently I use ALT+D+F+S to clear all the active filters and then start filtering again from beginning.

what i would prefer to do is.
Say i have filters applied in 6 columns. But i want the filters to be applied in 2 columns only and remove from other 4 columns,
then i would select cells in the 2 columns where i want the filters to stay.
then run the macro which will remove the applied filters on other 4 columns

if someone can help, it will be great
let me know if you need further clarification

Assuming you're using Autofilter...

Code:
[color=darkblue]Sub[/color] Clear_Filters_Unselected_Columns()
    [color=darkblue]Dim[/color] col [color=darkblue]As[/color] Range
    Application.ScreenUpdating = [color=darkblue]False[/color]
    [color=darkblue]With[/color] ActiveSheet.AutoFilter.Range
        [color=darkblue]For[/color] [color=darkblue]Each[/color] col [color=darkblue]In[/color] .Columns
            [color=darkblue]If[/color] Intersect(col, Selection) [color=darkblue]Is[/color] [color=darkblue]Nothing[/color] [color=darkblue]Then[/color]
                .AutoFilter col.Column
            [color=darkblue]End[/color] [color=darkblue]If[/color]
        [color=darkblue]Next[/color]
    [color=darkblue]End[/color] [color=darkblue]With[/color]
    Application.ScreenUpdating = [color=darkblue]True[/color]
[color=darkblue]End[/color] [color=darkblue]Sub[/color]
