Some tables have the Create Filter link, which is at the very bottom of the screen, below the pagination tool (if the pagination tool is present).

Clicking either the Create Filter text or the pin icon immediately to its left will bring up the Filter Builder panel.

If there is already an active filter, the Create Filter text will be replaced by the text of the filtering condition (you can click to edit that condition in the Filter Builder panel).

Additionally, there will be a checkbox to the left of that text that can be used to temporarily deactivate the filter, and all the way on the right will be the Clear button,

There is one even simpler way of filtering the results. Some column headings themselves have pin icons next to the name of the column. Clicking the pin icon in a column heading will bring up a list of all the distinct contents of the cells in that column.

In some cases, there will be a checkbox next to each item in the list. If there is no checkbox, you may simply select one of the options in the list, and the table will only show results matching the option you selected. If there are check boxes, you may select any number of the check boxes to only show results matching one of the items you selected. After selecting whichever check boxes you wish, press the OK button below the list to save your selections and create the filter. You can press the Cancel button instead to undo your selections and close the list. If none of the check boxes are selected (which is the default), or if the "(Select All)" box is selected, none of the results will be excluded based on that column. (Technically, if the Select All box is selected, it will create a filter, but that filter will have no effect on which results appear.) Selecting every box except the "(Select All)" box will automatically also select the "(Select All)" box. You may use this list filter on multiple columns, much like using the text-entry filter on multiple columns.  Indeed, you may also use the list filter on some columns and the text-entry filter on others. (You may not, however, use the list filter and the text-entry filter on the same column. Using either will override the other.)
