A comparison operator is used in comparison criteria to compare two values.
Operators include: ‘equals’, ‘does not equal’, ‘is less than’, ‘is less than or equal to’, ‘is
greater than’, ‘is greater than or equal to’, ‘like’, ‘not like’, ‘is blank’ and ‘is not blank’.

For example, if you want to filter the values of a column by text that includes a certain
word, character or sign, you have to select the comparison operator ‘like’.

4. Enter text in the field next to the first drop-down list.

For example, if you want to filter by text that includes the letter ‘S’, type %S%.

The % wildcard can substitute for zero or more characters. The _ character can
substitute for exactly one character.

5. If you want to add a second filter criterion, select the desired Boolean operator. Select:

AND, if both criteria have to be true;

OR, if at least one of the criteria or both have to be true.

6. Select the desired comparison operator from the second drop-down list, and then enter

text in the field at the right.

7. Click OK to apply the filter.

Only the values matching the entered criterion or criteria will be displayed.
