It's easy to filter a list with the builtin AutoFilter feature -- just right-click on a cell, click Filter, then click Filter by Selected Cell

If the list did not already have drop down arrows in the headings cells, those are added automatically, when the AutoFilter is applied.

You can select a criteria in each cell of the list, to see the records that meet all of the criteria. For example, see all the orders with a specific customer AND a specific product.

However, with an AutoFilter, there is a limitation -- you can't see all the orders with a specific customer OR a specific product.

To filter a table for one set of criteria OR another, use an advanced filter. This short video shows you the steps.
