Criteria Range Must Be Contiguous in ExcelLast reviewed: November 2, 1994 |
SUMMARYA criteria range must be a contiguous area at least 1 column wide and 2 rows high. There may be blank columns or rows in a criteria range. Consider the following example: A B C
-----------------------------------
1 | Salary | | Hire_Date |
2 | >25000 | |>01/01/1985|
3 | | | |
Assuming that Salary and Hire_Date are field names in a database, the ranges A1:C3, A1:B2, and A1:A3 are all valid criteria ranges even though column B and row 3 are blank. Selecting A1:A2 and C1:C2 and trying to set criteria on this range will result in the error "Can't do that to a multiple selection." |
