I have the following rows of data in my sheet. Here are six as an example, but I essentially have over 1000 rows of data.
ABC
1AccountOwnerSegment
2TeslaJessCOM
3BrookstoneKellySMB
4GoProJessSMB
5AppleLindaENT
6GoogleKellyENT
7NetflixJessCOM


What I want to do is have a drop down list or a pick list setup so that when I select Jess from the picklist, all of Accounts show up like this...
EFG
1Pick Rep:Jess
2
3AccountSegment
4TeslaCOM
5GoProSMB
6NetFlixCOM
7


What excel formula do I put in cell E4 (and the rest of the rows in that column downwards) so that every time I change the account owner in cell F1, the appropriate list of accounts show up?

Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
This is in Excel. I don't know Sheets well enough to translate, but maybe it will give you an idea of how to do it.

Funny enough, someone posted an answer in a separate Google-Sheets forum, but it's pretty simple. It's actually just putting in the following in cell E4 (on my example):

=FILTER($A:$A, $B:$B=$F$1)

Very simple :)
