Advanced Filtering

For a column of an Excel that contains the date of inspection (I_DATE)

Is it possible for me to use filtering to find the I_DATE between "Start
Date" and "End Date" (For instance, 1 Jan 2005 and 31 Mar 2005) OR those
records with I_DATE is null ? If yes, how ? This is because I can manage
to set the "Start Date" and "End Date" but not the able to filter those are
null.

Thanks

Add another column to the criteria area
Leave the heading cell blank
In the new column, in the row below the other criteria, enter a formula
that refers to the date column of the main table, e.g.:

=I_Date=""

When you press the Enter key, the cell will show a #NAME? error.

Run the advanced filter, and include the new row and column in the
criteria area.
