Excel: filter a column by more than two values (“ends with”)
This is related to another (answered) question. At:
Excel: filter a column by more than two values?
There is an answer for how to filter for cells equal to a set of values with more than two members. Does anyone know how this would be extended to filter for cells ending with one of a set of values with more than two members. Using the standard filters, I can filter for "(Ends With A) or (Ends With B)," but how would I filter for "(Ends With A) or (Ends With B) or (Ends With C)?"
Thanks in advance for any help!

Complex criteria can always be attacked with a "helper" column. Say we want to filter column A if the word ends with y, j, or z
In B2 enter:
=IF(OR(RIGHT(A2,1)="y",RIGHT(A2,1)="j",RIGHT(A2,1)="z"),1,0)
and copy down..............then filter by column B
