Property Value

Type	Description
AutoFilterCondition	An AutoFilterCondition enumeration value that specifies the type of the comparison operator.

Available values:

Name	Description
Like	The Like comparison operator is used to create filter conditions. This operator selects records whose values in the corresponding column start with the entered string.
Equals	The Equals comparison operator is used to create filter conditions. This operator selects records whose values in the corresponding column match the entered value.
Contains	The Contains operator is used to create filter conditions. This operator selects records whose values in the corresponding column contain the entered string.
Default	For string values, the Like comparison operator is used to create filter conditions. This operator selects records whose values in the corresponding column start with the entered string. For other values (e.g. Boolean, numeric), the Equals comparison operator is used.

Remarks

Use the AutoFilterCondition property to specify the comparison operator type: CONTAINS, EQUALS, or LIKE. To learn more, see Automatic Filter Row and Filter Modes and Custom Filtering.

A cell’s filter criterion depends on the AutoFilterCondition and ColumnBase.AutoFilterCriteria properties:

• When the ColumnBase.AutoFilterCriteria property is not null, the Automatic Filter Row uses the criterion specified in this property.

• The Automatic Filter Row uses the ColumnBase.AutoFilterCriteria property and ignores the AutoFilterCondition property if the ColumnBase.ShowCriteriaInAutoFilterRow property is set to true.

  When the ColumnBase.AutoFilterCriteria property is null, the Automatic Filter Row chooses a filter criterion depending on the column type and the column filter mode (ColumnBase.ColumnFilterMode).

• The Automatic Filter Row uses the AutoFilterCondition when the ColumnBase.AutoFilterCriteria property is null.
