Hello,

I am using the filter function to pull data from a table in excel using table references. I need to filter out any row containing 2 specific words in a specific column. I am having difficulty doing this with table references as all the examples online show this done with cell ranges not table references/ranges. I have attached an image with my filtered results/formula in Cell I4 as I am unable to add the workbook. I would like to filter out any row in the "Customer Name" column with the words "Lemon" or "Pear".

Thanks, that works exactly how I wanted it to in the example file.
Actually, I just realized that I had made a mistake with my original formula. You can also duplicate the first step you gave me and change the GL and that will work but your formula is much cleaner.

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
Glad we could help & thanks for the feedback.
