Ashish sends out this SOS thru email,
I need your help in putting filters . Can we filter the cells on the basis of their even or odd character.
i.e in the table of 1-1000, i wish to filter, 1,3,5,7,…
An odd request, I must say.
But nevertheless, possible in Excel.
If you want to filter odd or even rows only in a list of values,
Assuming your data looks like this:
- Add an extra column at the end of your data.
- Type =ISEVEN(B3) to test whether the number in B3 is even or odd.
- Drag the formula to fill the entire range.
- Now filter either TRUE or FALSE values.
- That is all. You have filtered even or odd rows.

PS: If you do not have sequential numbers in your data, you can use =ISEVEN(ROW())
Bonus tips:
- You can filter every third row using =MOD(B3,3) and then filtering out all 0s. Help on MOD formula.
- You can highlight alternative rows in different colors using conditional formatting.
- Or use Excel Tables to automatically zebra-line (ie shade alternative rows in different color).
That Click is here all, for go more ahead on and filters. enjoy.
Just read odd or even words alone.

Hi Chandoo,
I am responsible for tracking when church reports are submitted on time or not and the variations from the due date for submission.
Here is the Scenario;
The due date for the submission of monthly reports is on the 5th of each month. and I would like to know how many reports have been submitted on time (i.e, those that have been submitted on or before the due date) I would also want to track those reports that have been submitted after the due date has passed.
How can I create such a tracker?
Hi Chandoo,
I am a member of your excel school.
I was trying to create SOP Tracker I follow all your steps but I keep this error below.
The list source must be a delimited list, or a reference to a single row or cell.
I try looking on YouTube for answer but no luck.
