• So, speaking of design flaws, Excel in Microsoft Office 2016 for the Mac tries to present 'intelligent' filtering for a column based on the data in the column.

• Here’s how to quickly create a drop-down list in Excel on Mac. Add a drop-down list to a cell. Open Microsoft Excel and the document where you want to add the drop-down list.

How to filter multiple values in only one column in Excel?

It is easy for us to filter a specific value in a column with the Filter function in Excel, but, sometimes, you may need to filter multiple values from a long column as below screenshot shown. To check the items one by one into the long Filter list box may not be the best way for filtering. In this article, I will talk about some quick ways for solving this job.

See the Excel Help topic: Sort a list of data, particularly the links entitled Sort a list by one column & Sort a list by two or three columns. If you continue to have a problem please be more descriptive of how the data is arranged, clarify how you want to sort it, and in exactly what way the suggested method fails to provide the result you need.

Filter multiple values from one column with the Advanced Filter function

In Excel, the Advanced Filter function can help you to filter multiple values in a column quickly and easily. Please do as this:

(1.) Select Filter the list, in-place option from the Action section;

(2.) Then, select the data range that you want to filter in the List range, and specify the list of multiple values you want to filter based on in the Criteria range; (Note: The header name of the filter column and criteria list must be the same.)

3. Then, click OK button, your specified items have been filtered out from the data range.

Filter multiple values from one column with a helper column

In this section, you can also use a helper column for dealing with this job.

1. Enter the below formula into a cell – C2 beside your data:

Note: In the above formula, E2:E5 is the value list that you want to filter based on, and A2 is the first cell of the column that you want to filter.

2. Then, drag the fill handle down to the cells that you want to use, and the cells will display 1 or 0, 1 indicates the values that you want to filter based on.

3. Then, select the helper column, and click Data > Filter, in the filter list box, check 1 from the Select All section, see screenshot:

3. And, all the values you specified have been filtered out, see screenshot:
