Hi there,

I have an issue in excel i cannot crack and would really appreciate some expert help

I want to apply a single filter to multiple columns in order to search for recurring instances. 

As an example, I want to be able to filter all the the roles for everyone in the database who have applied for the role of 'COO'. I can filter each column to search the values that are within them but i cannot seem to filter across multiple columns. I tried to add a merged row above 'Role1', 'Role 2', 'Role 3' (called Roles) to account for content across all three but the filter only picks up content from what is in the 'Role1' column. As a result i cannot select items such as 'Global Industry Leader' or return data from across the three columns.

Can any body help me

Thanks
