Filter Data to Show Only the Bottom 10 Items in Excel - AutoFilter

This Excel macro filters a selection of data in order to display only the bottom 10 items in the list or data set. This uses the autofilter method in Excel.

In order to use this macro, simply make sure that the cell reference for the range is the start of the table, list, or data set which you would like to filter. This is a very easy to use filter macro in Excel and can help stream-line your data processing needs in Excel.

How Filter Macros Work

All of the elements below often appear within autofilter macros.

Range

• This should be the start of the data set, table, or list which you would like to filter. This can also be the entire range reference to the table. For example, if the table was from cell A1:D450, you could put that as the range or you could put A1 as the range. You can do this because the autofilter feature in Excel will automatically try to determine the total range which you would like to filter.

Field

• This is the number of the column within the data table that you would like to filter. The first field (1) is the very first column in the data set that will be filtered. This means that if your data starts in column B and your range is Range("B1") and you want to filter based on column D, you would put 3 in for the field.

Criteria

• This is the criteria by which you would like to filter. Some of the macros have symbols within the quotation marks after this argument and those symbols (such as <,>,*,?, etc.) should be left where they are in order to retain the functionality of the macro.

Operator

• You will not have to change this. This is simply the way to perform different types of filter features in Excel.
