Turning Off AutoFiltering
Using the AutoFilter feature of Excel is a powerful way to review the data in a long list. At some point you may want to undo AutoFiltering. To undo filtering, you have these options:
- Turn off the AutoFilter feature by selecting Filter from the Data menu and then AutoFilter from the submenu. (Works in versions of Excel prior to Excel 2007.)
- Reset all filtering criteria by selecting Filter from the Data menu and then Show All from the submenu. (Works in versions of Excel prior to Excel 2007.)
- Select the pull-down arrow for a field that has criteria set, and then choose the (All) option. (Works in versions of Excel prior to Excel 2007.)
- Turn off the AutoFilter feature by displaying the Data tab of the ribbon and clicking Filter in the Sort & Filter group. (Works in Excel 2007.)
