    Alternative to the FILTER Function

    Good day!

    I made a registration sheet where a user enters either the name or employee number and upon hitting search, reveals the results.

    =FILTER(Raw!B2:F39873,ISNUMBER(SEARCH(E6,Last_Name))+ISNUMBER(SEARCH(E6,First_Name)),"No records found")

    B2:F39873 is the range that contains the Organization, Employee ID, Last Name, First Name, and Site.

    Last_Name is the name of the range which holds the last names (D2:D39873)
    First_Name is the name of the range which holds the first names (E2:E39873)
    EID is the name of the range which holds the employee numbers (C2:C39873)

    The problem is, when the file was sent to the team managing registration, the team had a non-Office 365 account, hence did not recognize the FILTER function.

    How can I replace this formula for use by a non-Office 365 user?

    Welcome to the forum

    Please attach a sample workbook (not a picture or pasted copy). Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.
