Tom Ogilvy posted the following function, that can be used to return the
criteria from a column in an autofiltered table. It will show both
criteria if there are two, and will include the operator.
Public Function ShowFilter(rng As Range)
'UDF that displays the filter criteria.
'posted by Tom Ogilvy 1/17/02
'To make it respond to a filter change, tie it to the subtotal command.
'=showfilter(B10)&CHAR(SUBTOTAL(9,B11)*0+32)
'So the above would show the criteria for column B
Dim filt As Filter
Dim sCrit1 As String
Dim sCrit2 As String
Dim sop As String
Dim lngOp As Long
Dim lngOff As Long
Dim frng As Range
Dim sh As Worksheet
Set sh = rng.Parent
If sh.FilterMode = False Then
ShowFilter = "No Active Filter"
Exit Function
