I have a shapefile showing a list of district names. I have (currently in Excel) a long list of district names in a table. I would like to filter those districts that are in the other list. I think this is something to do with the attribute table and an expression, but I don;t know the expression for "this name is another another list".

  • Which list are you referring when you said the other list? Is it the one in the excel file or the shapefile?

  • It would the list that is in the excel file. So I would like to highlight those districts in the shapefile that match entries in a separate list of districts in an excel file

Try using the 'Join attribute by field value' processing tool



Assuming that both tables have a field in common. I.e. link the two together on district code and then filter your data once joined.
