Filter to show Last Selected Option Excel - excel

I am using Microsoft Office LTSC professional plus 2021.
I have a problem with filter. I have a long list of different products, so I use filter to select 1 product at a time. Since I have over 100 positions, I need to scroll down each time when I use filter window.
The problem is that whenever I open filter window, it shows from the 1st option, not from the last selected option(image provided). I need the filter window to show me from the last selected option.
Please, provide step-by-step guide, I am not so good at computer-stuff.

Excel - Data Validation Drop Down List - Can you make it have more than 8 lines?

I have a longer set of data for a drop down list (25 options) but excel only displays 8 at a time. See example photo. Is there a way to set it to display more? Would love it to display 12 or more.
I don't think this is possible with a list box, but a combo-box might be an appropriate alternative. They're not exactly the same, but it does give you a drop down for which you can say how many items to show in the list.
Here's the Office support on how to add a list box or combo box to a worksheet in excel.

Sorting in SSRS on Detail View

I'm asking on behalf of a coworker for this question.
She is using Visual Studio 2012/SQL Server 2012.
In EXCEL how you can sort easily from A-Z, Z-A and stuff of the sort in real time, is there a way to be able to do that in SSRS? Say a user drills from main view into detail view...is there a way with the info they can sort/mess around with it prior to exporting to excel?
Yes there is.. Click on the header line for the column that you want to sort.. right click - Text Box Properties - Interactive Sorting then choose the Enable Interactive Sorting on this text box and then choose which field you want to sort by... when you run the report.. you will get an arrow next to the header that you can click to sort.. you can do this on multiple columns.. and if you wanted to sort by more than one column... you sort it by clicking on column one.. hold down shift and then the next column.. done.. the arrows do not print or export.. it's visible only on interactive view.

SSRS - Merge Cells of Same Data Vertically

Please see attached screenshot as I think this will help show better. I have an SSRS report, in that one column can have the same value across many rows. For this report, you can see Site column has a value of "JAC-FL". How can I "merge" this so it only appears once (See screen shot of "Excel Layout" as I know how to do this in Excel). For the life of me, I cannot seem to get this.
I already have a rowgroup defined for the data (see Row Group screenshot) (Please note, there is data for Username, but I removed it so it wouldn't appear in the screen shot).
Site = lvl_2_value, UMFullName = User Name, stream_3_Stream = Stream
I cannot seem to get my Site (I plan on doing this to the other columns as well, but thought if I get the first to work, I can do it to the others) to appear like the Excel layout. Would anyone be able to help?
You'll want to split out the rows into child groups, instead of grouping on all of them at once. Take a look at the bottom left of your first screenshot, you can see the "row groups" section there.
If all you see in that box is a line that says "(Details)", then you will need to start by right-clicking that and adding a parent group. Then you can add a child to that parent, and so on, going from most inclusive to least inclusive. So for example, if we were working with locations, we could do something like Country > State/Province > City).
example
It may be easiest to start a new tablix (keep your old tablix until you're done though so you can copy and paste expressions and get the formatting right again!), as things tend to get shifted around when you add groups to an existing tablix.

Excel pivot table search filter with and / or

I am trying to filter a field in a pivot table so that it only shows some values.
I have a field which is product code and I want to only show the product codes that are H01, P07, F04, L43, ... and the list continues. For the moment, I have to click the little arrow next to the field, do a search on the code and then click on the checkbox add current filter to selection and hit ok. I have to do this 20 times for the 20 different product codes.
Is there a way to enter in the search box immediately H01, P07, F04, L43, ... just once and then hit ok and I ll see all the product codes immediately?
Thanks,
John.
You can loop through pivot items and select the ones that match your criteria using VBA as suggested here:
Looping through report filters to change visibility doesn't work
The only issue I've had with this sort of approach is that you cannot deselect the only selected item, so if you are going to be deselecting then you should make sure to select particular items as well.

SharePoint Webpart dropdownlist autopostback isn't functioning correctly

I have built a webpart that basically displays all the items in a SharePoint list based on a set of criteria.
One of these criteria's is a date, a year specifically. The user is supposed to select the date from a dropdown list in the web part and the view area below will populate with all the items from that specific year.
That part works. The SPQuery grabs the data just fine and displays it in the format desired. The issue I am having is with the autopostback option on the dropdownlist.
It doesn't remember the current selectedindex, it remembers the PREVIOUS selected index. If I chooes 2014, the page loads but nothing changes, if I then choose 2013, the 2014 stuff appears, if I then choose 2010, the 2013 items appear, if I go back and then select the 2014, the 2010 stuff appears. It's always 1 behind and I have no idea why.
I've tried assigning a ViewState variable in the SelectedIndexChange to remember what was selected, but that too always seems to be one step behind. I can't seem to get the CURRENT selected index.
Does anyone know what's going on here?
Your question is more ASP.NET problem than SharePoint. Check MSDN to see page life-cycle. New values of controls are available after the onLoad event of Page. So just move your code to e.ge. onPrerender event.
