How to select/copy only cells that are shown through auto filitering?
 
Hi,

That is not necessary, just select all the cells which are displayed and
copy them, Excel only copies visible cells from a filtered list.

You can choose F5, Special, Visible cells but its not necessary.
 
Hi kkh

Example to Copy the filter result to a new worksheet:

1) Select the whole data range or if you not have empty rows/columns in the range
you can use Ctrl * to select all data or use F5>Special>Current region>OK with
one cell selected in the data range.
If it copy all the data (there are a few reports of 2007 users) use also the shortcut
Alt ; or F5>Special>Visible cells only>OK to select only the Visible cells.

2) Ctrl c in all Excel versions or:
Excel 97-2003: Edit>Copy
Excel 2007: Home tab>Clipboard group>Copy

3) Shift F11 in all Excel versions to insert a worksheet or:
Excel 97-2003: Insert>Worksheet
Excel 2007: Home tab>Cells group>Insert...Sheet
Or use button next to the last tab

4) Ctrl v in all Excel versions or:
Excel 97-2003: Edit>Paste
Excel 2007: Home tab>Clipboard group>Paste
