Filter Assistant for Microsoft Excel

The Filter Assistant add-in for Microsoft Excel makes filtering data easy. It is compatible with Microsoft Excel 2010-2021 and Office 365.

The Filter Assistant eliminates many of the annoying features of Excel's data filter feature. With the Filter Assistant all you do to filter data is to select the cells containing the values you want filtered and just click on the button on the Filter Assistant toolbar. Instantly your data is filtered so that only those matching rows are displayed!

You can filter multiple columns at a time. Just click on the first cell whose value will be used as a filter. Then hold the Control key down and click on other cells in other columns. When you then click on the Filter Assistant toolbar button all the columns are filtered based on the cells you selected!

One of the nice features of the Filter Assistant is that the screen does not "jump" when you filter it.

Another very useful feature is the "Un-filter" capability of the Filter Assistant. If you select a cell in a filtered column and click on the Filter Assistant button the column will be un-filtered. And if you select a cell in the top row of an un-filtered column and click the button this turns off data filtering.
