Try to show only tasks that contain the text 'Export'

[Greggy]

Hi Everyone,

I have been very successful with filters that remove detail from the
schedule. Using the filter Names, Does Not Contain, Value, I can
remove detail from the Calendar view.

However, now, I am trying to only show tasks that have a certain words
in them. I'm trying to use Contains, or, Contains Exactly, but that
does not seem to be working.

Could someone please give me an example of creating a filter that would
only show tasks that have certains words in them.

Thanks so much!
G.

Hi Greg,

Try a filter of
Name equals *export*

Hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Ahh... sweet! *Export* is working.

Thanks so much!! Again (and again).

Ok... one more question.

If I create a filter that has more than one word ... and *Export* and
another row *Tom*, now everything is blank. Is there a trick to using
multiple words to include in the filter?

Thank you.

Hi Greg,

You are very welcome for the assistance and thanks for the feedback.

To show tasks with either a Task Name containing "Export" OR Tasks assigned
to Tom:
Try:
First Row: Name equals *export*
Second Row: OR Resource Names equals *Tom*

To show only tasks containing Export AND assigned to Tom:
First Row: Name equals *export*
Second Row: AND Resource Names equals *Tom*

If there are no tasks containing the word export that are assigned to Tom,
the filter will return no records.

Hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.
