    Capabilities of Text Filter - By Specific Character

    Hi All,

    (Using Excel 2010)

    I'm trying to develop a way to filter rows by a column containing the bus routes connecting to a given stop.

    Said column is a string of comma separated numbers, examples would include:

    1
    1,7,10
    5, 10, 21

    For this example, the goal is to filter down to all rows containing route 1. The challenge lies in omitting route 10, 21, etc.

    Is there a way to have the text filter only apply to "1"?

    I'm fairly new to VBA, but open to code-based solutions as well.

    Any insight is greatly appreciated!

    Thanks,
    Lucas

    This works, assuming the stops are in column A and the routes are in column B.

    One spreadsheet to rule them all. One spreadsheet to find them. One spreadsheet to bring them all and at corporate, bind them.

    A picture is worth a thousand words, but a sample spreadsheet is more likely to be worked on.
