Advanced Filter - error message

Hi there,

Can anyone tell me what the following message means and how to stop it please

'The extract range has a missing or illegal field name'

In simple language please - not even sure what extract range and field name
are.

The filter works. It puts the data expected into the cell I tell it to but
an error message pops up afterwards.

I would be grateful for any answers.

Cheers
Mifty

The extract range is where you want the filter results to start. The
range can be blank, or can contain headings that exactly match headings
from the source table. (You can use some or all of the headings from the
source table.)

A field is a column in the source table.

Usually you get that message if a heading in the extract range isn't
identical to one of the headings in the source table.
