HI

I have a worksheet of 650 rows.

Certain of the rows are highlighted in green.

How can I group the highlighted rows at the top of the sheet?


Grateful for any advice.



Best Wishes

In an adjacent column you can add a code (like G for green) against
each of those highlighted cells. Then if you want to filter it (which
is what your heading suggested) you can apply a filter to this helper
column. If you want to group those highlighted cells together, then
you can sort the data plus the helper column, using the helper column
as the sort key, and then all the G's will be bunched together, with
the blank cells below.

Hope this helps.

Pete
