Filtering an Attribute

To filter data for an attribute:

1	Select one or more columns of attribute data (such as ID, lot number, date, etc.).

2	Choose Data > Attribute Filter to display the Attribute Filter dialog box.

3	Select the filtering criteria.

If you select to filter by Text, enter the text that should be matched. If you select to filter by range, enter the minimum and maximum values of range to be matched.

4	Select the type of filtering.

Use single pass filtering to deactivate data for one filtering criterion. With cumulative filtering, data deactivated for one operation remains deactivated during subsequent filtering passes, regardless of the criterion.

5	Click OK to filter the data.

Click Apply instead of OK to repeat the process.

To undo the last or all attribute data filtering, choose Data > Undo Attribute Filtering.
