You are right, I had to provide more details.

Spreadsheet is used to parse fixed-length messages. There are around 100
different messages, and each contains different fields. For example, message
01 contains 3 fields with length 10, and 1 field with length 5, and message
02 contains 2 fields with lengths 3 and 2.

I have XLS file (prepared by another person) like:
A | B | C | D
M02My-very-complex-message
M01 | =MID($A$1;C2;D2) | 1 | 10
M01 | =MID($A$1;C3;D3)  | 11 | 10
M01 | =MID($A$1;C4;D4)  | 21 | 10
M01 | =MID($A$1;C4;D4)  | 31 | 5

M02 | =MID($A$1;C5;D5) | 1 | 3
M02 | =MID($A$1;C6;D6) | 4 | 2

So when I need to parse a message, I enter it into A1, then go to autofilter
and select message type (01, if it's message 01)
What I want is to eliminate this last step, so filter should change
automatically when I enter message into A1.

Oleg.
