How to hide row when value of one of the cell in row is “yes”?

Question

I have this function

function HideRow()
{
  var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
  var s = ss.getSheetByName("Sheet1");

  var datarange = s.hideRows(2);//this will hide Column B
}

But i don't know how to use this function HideRows() with checking value of one of the cell in the row to "yes". Could someone explain me?

Answer 1

You could use the QUERY formula to achieve this.

Please post a Sheet with Dummy Data so we can show you how to use it.

In the meantime, as a generic example:

=Query(A:Z; "Select A,B,C...Z Where X='YES'";1)

A:Z is the range

Select A,B,C...Z are the columns for the rows you wish to hide

WHERE X='YES' this is the condition that will hide the row.

Cheers,
