Speed up macro object_ Change()

[Celticfc]

Hi,

I have a "search box" where you can search for a name in my table named "manager1" and it will filter through.

The problem is, it takes ages to filter as my table is 20X700 so it has lots of entries.

Can we add criteria to the code where it will take effect only if user types 5 or more characters?

Any other idea how to speed up?

Thank you.

Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
    ActiveSheet.ListObjects("manager1").Range.AutoFilter Field:=7, _
        Criteria1:="*" & [az1] & "*", Operator:=xlFilterValues

try this:

Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
s = TextBox1.Value
 If Len(s) > 4 Then
  Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
    ActiveSheet.ListObjects("manager1").Range.AutoFilter Field:=7, _
        Criteria1:="*" & [az1] & "*", Operator:=xlFilterValues
 End If
End Sub

sorry it should be:

[COLOR=#333333]Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
[/COLOR]s = TextBox1.Value
 If Len(s) > 4 Then
  
    ActiveSheet.ListObjects("manager1").Range.AutoFilter Field:=7, _
        Criteria1:="*" & [az1] & "*", Operator:=xlFilterValues
 End If [COLOR=#333333]End Sub[/COLOR]
