Find rows using a selection expression
Enter a selection expression in the Grid view of the Trillion-Row Spreadsheet or the Macro Language Workshop to find rows within a table or worksheet.
Use a selection expression to identify rows in a table or worksheet. Found rows are highlighted in the grid so that you can easily see them amongst the rest of the data.
To find rows using a selection expression:
-
In the Grid view of an open table or worksheet, click the Find
rows (
) icon.
The Find rows icon is located at the top of the grid.
The Trillion-Row Spreadsheet displays the Find rows dialog above the grid.
-
In the Expression Editor, enter a selection expression.
The selection expression may refer to one or more columns and may include standard arithmetic, relational, and logical operators as well as any Insight Platform functions.
