I saved this comment from an old email in case I ever needed it ... and now I do, but I can't seem to get it to work right. I don't know if this came from Vic or Linda, that is why I cc you both... I have an excel list of name and addresses... 10,273 to be exact... when I tried this it tells me that it filtered it down to 9919, but it is showing all 10,273 names.... When I try to get it to copy to a new sheet it wont do it... can anybody please help me????
