Excel VBA autofilter for multiple wildcard then change field value and filldown
I have search until I cannot find how to do this and it work properly. What I am trying to do is find a wildcard value that is more than one. I also would like to fill down column Z.
What is happening is that if I enter more than 1 wildcard it only finds one of them even though the column has many. If there is only 1 returned it inputs Tier 1 then on filldown it defaults back to Tier 2. What am I missing?
Thank you in advance for your help!
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$AB$" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).AutoFilter Field:=13, Criteria1:=Array( _
"*9365*", "*9575*", "*9375*"), _
Operator:=xlOr
With Worksheets("Raw Data").AutoFilter.Range
Range("Z" & .Offset(1, 0).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)(1).Row).Select
End With
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Tier 1"
With ActiveSheet.UsedRange
.Resize(.Rows.Count - 1).Offset(1).Columns("Z"). _
SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).FillDown
End With
I have tried the fix per @dwirony but my values return no data.

Why don't you try defining the range by finding the last visible row and setting all the values to"Tier 1"at once?
