<p id="par_id3150869" class="paragraph">Filters and advanced filters allow you to work on certain filtered rows (records) of a data range. In the spreadsheets in LibreOffice there are various possibilities for applying filters.</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p id="par_id3155131" class="listitem">One use for the <span class="emph">AutoFilter</span> function is to quickly restrict the display to records with identical entries in a data field.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p id="par_id3146119" class="listitem">In the <span class="emph">Standard Filter</span> dialog, you can also define ranges which contain the values in particular data fields. You can use the standard filter to connect the conditions with either a logical AND or a logical OR operator.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p id="par_id3150010" class="listitem">The <span class="emph">Advanced filter</span> allows up to a total of eight filter conditions. With advanced filters you enter the conditions directly into the sheet.</p>
