Filter functions

Use one of the following functions to work with filters:

  • _Excel_FilterGet: Returns a list of set filters
  • _Excel_FilterSet: Sets/unsets filter definitions and filters the range

Retrieve all filtered rows

To retrieve all rows of a filtered range you need to work with Areas. An Area consists of one or multiple Ranges which you need to process in a loop. The following example returns an array with all visible rows.

$oRange = $oWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Usedrange.SpecialCells($xlCellTypeVisible)
Local $aResult[1][$oRange.columns.Count], $aContent
; Read the data of all Ranges in the Area and concatenate the returned arrays.
For $oArea In $oRange.Areas
    $aContent = _Excel_RangeRead($oWorkbook, Default, $oArea, Default, True)
    _ArrayConcatenate($aResult, $aContent)
