When the control has enhanced filtering turned on, the user can drop-down a list of available filters to apply to the data.
The default filter that is displayed depends on the data in the column. The filter can be a number, text, date, or color filter.
The filters are described in the following table.
| Filter Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Number Filters | |
| Equals | Values in rows are equal to condition |
| Does Not Equal | Values in rows do not equal condition |
| Greater Than | Values in rows are greater than condition |
| Greater Than Or Equal To | Values in rows are greater than or equal to condition |
| Less Than | Values in rows are less than condition |
| Less Than Or Equal To | Values in rows are less than or equal to condition |
| Between | Values in rows are greater than one condition and less than another condition |
| Top 10 | Values in the rows with the ten highest values |
| Above Average | Values in the rows that are above the average of the values in all the rows |
| Below Average | Values in the rows that are below the average of the values in all the rows |
| Custom Filter | Values in rows that meet the conditions of a custom filter |
| Text Filters | |
| Equals | Values in rows equal the condition |
| Does Not Equal | Values in rows do not equal the condition |
| Begins With | Values in rows begin with the specified characters |
| Ends With | Values in rows end with the specified characters |

| Next Year | Values in rows are during next year |
| This Year | Values in rows are during current year |
| Last Year | Values in rows are during last year |
| Year to Date | Values in rows are during current year to present date |
| All Dates in the Period | Values in rows are within a specified period |
| Custom Filter | Values in rows that meet the conditions of a custom filter |
Users can specify wildcards in conditions. The "?" character represents any single character. The "*" character represents any series of characters.
When the user chooses a filter, the control either filters the data to display only the items that match the filter criteria, or the control displays the rows that meet the criteria with one appearance, and the rows that do not meet the criteria with another appearance. For information about setting the styles for rows, see Creating Filtered Rows and Setting the Appearance.
Set the AutoFilterMode property to Enhanced, create a filter style, and then apply the filter to the sheet.
The following example creates an enhanced filter in the first three columns. Add different types of data to see the various filter options.
