The true statement about filters in Microsoft® Excel databases is:

Filters make it easier to find specific information in a large database.

Here’s a brief explanation for the other options:

  • Filters sort information in alphabetical order. (False: Filters do not sort data; they allow you to display only rows that meet certain criteria.)
  • Filters create fields that describe the remaining data. (False: Filters do not create new fields; they simply hide rows that do not match the filter criteria.)
  • Only one filter can be applied at a time. (False: You can apply multiple filters across different columns in Excel.)

So, the correct response is the one about making it easier to find specific information.
