How can I filter data based on items in a list?
- by user2964366
How can I filter entries containing any specific word in a list of words? For example, I have a list of road names in Singapore.
Amoy Street, Singapore
Ann Siang Hill
Anson Road
Arab Street
Armenian Street, Singapore
BBaghdad Street (Singapore)
Balestier Road
Banda Street
Bartley Road
Beach Road, Singapore
Bencoolen Street
Bernam Street
Boat Quay
Boon Tat Street
Boundary Road, Singapore
Bras Basah Road
Bugis Street
Bukit Batok Road
Bukit Pasoh Road
Bukit Timah Road
CCantonment Road, Singapore
Choa Chu Kang Road
Clarke Quay
Clementi Road
Club Street
Collyer Quay
Connaught Drive
Craig Road (Singapore)
Cross Street
and many more
My spreadsheet has a large number of entries like the following, which may or may not contain road names mentioned in my list:
Saw an accident at Thomson Road
Found this by accident
6 vehicles crashed at Balestier Road
I wanna crash now. So tired.
Bus collides with bicycle at Arab Street.
Accident at City Road.
You can crash my house later.
How do I filter to return entries that contains any road name identified in the list of names? How do I introduce an array/list of road names into Microsoft Excel and then relate it to a filter function?
