reporting yes results in one column

J

I have a very small table of 22 questions which only require YES NO
replies in one column.

How to I either make a pivot table report to just show the YES.


Or set up an advanced filter to a new sheet which just shows yes
results


or is there a better way ?


Thanks

I do not know about better, but here is a quick stab you can play with
and morph as needed:


xttp://www.mediafire.com/file/mf56vs4tu24ync0/QueryResultShow.xls

You have to replace the xttp with http.

Thanks - I have been doing some learning and have got an advance
filter to do it - but my issues are now

1 the filter does stay to be used again after it been used once and
the filtered data is in a new sheet

also if I make changes in the main sheet the filtered sheet does "auto
update"

any ideas

My method may help, and then you could use a pivot table to show the
results as a single block of info. The pivot table remains through data
alterations.

You should look at mine, if you didn't yet. No pivot table, but not
difficult to add one.

Why not a simple one click macro to
data>filter>autofilter>filter by yes>copy to other sheet>unfilter

To OP

As an alternative to Don's macro suggestion............

To use an advanced filter with results to another sheet see Debra's site.

Nice page - thanks

I have tried - the only issue is I have to repeat the setting up of
the Advanced filter - everytime I change the YES NO responses to the
questions - is there a way to save the advanced filter or keep it
active ?

The method found on Debra's site is not dynamic.

Turn on the macro recorder and follow Don's suggestion of Autofilter, copy and
paste.
