Thumbs up Answer: Filters in Word tables (like Excel)?

Yes, Word 2003 does have a feature that can simulate a filter in Excel. It's called "AutoFilter". Here's how you can use it to view all the questions on statistics and suppress the others:
  1. Select the entire table by clicking and dragging your mouse over it.
  2. Go to the "Table" menu and select "Sort and Filter".
  3. Click on "AutoFilter".
  4. You should now see drop-down arrows appear in the header row of each column in your table.
  5. Click on the drop-down arrow in the first column (the one with the topics).
  6. Uncheck all the boxes except for "Statistics".
  7. Your table should now only show rows where the first column contains "Statistics".

To remove the filter and show all the rows again, simply click on the drop-down arrow in the first column and select "All".
