    Filter multiple criteria using wildcards

    I need to filter using multiple criteria so I can delete unwanted records.
    Finding examples of filtering by more than 2 criteria while using wildcards has proven difficult.

    This works, but I'm trying to shrink this code to reduce the chances of it failing from a variation in the future:

    Is it possible to do it this way or do I need to filter by 2 criteria at a time and remove visible rows between each filtering?

    A particular string could not be seen in the filter list for whatever reason. Perhaps it was too long or a certain character caused the issue, I've not seen it happen before.

    So I have done it a different way.
    It will now Replace all of the unwanted cells with "Deletable Entry" and then filter for that. Then I can remove them all. Easy enough.
