I have two worksheets, one which is used to filter the other.

Using VBA I wish to use AutoFilter such as below:

Sheet1:

Username, Country, City
User1, America, New York
User2, America, Miami
User3, America, Los Angeles

Sheet2:

Country, City, Contact
America, <>Miami, AllCitiesButMiami@test.com
America, Miami, OnlyMiami@test.com

My AutoFilter so far looks like this:

With ActiveSheet

    .AutoFilterMode = False 'Reset the filter

    'Set filter values
    With .Range("A1:C1")
        .AutoFilter
        .AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=VBA.Array(Country)
        .AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:=VBA.Array(City)
    End With

    'Set contact to third visible cell
    TheContact = .UsedRange.Offset(1).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Cells(3)

    .AutoFilterMode = False 'Reset the filter

End With

The results while iterating through Sheet1 should be:

Sheet1:Row1(User1): City = New York, TheContact = “AllCitiesButMiami@test.com”

Sheet1:Row2(User2): City = Miami, TheContact = “OnlyMiami@test.com”

Sheet1:Row3(User3): City = Los Angeles, TheContact = “AllCitiesButMiami@test.com”

Problem:
I need help with the second Field, “<>Miami” doesn’t pick up all cities BUT Miami

    This is how I solved my problems. The <>Miami wasn’t being picked up until I used the Criteria “~<>*”

    ....
    Dim City
    City = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("C" & i) 'i = current row
    
    'I set the filter to current row data
    .AutoFilter Field:=14, Criteria1:=City
    
    'Check row count (cell count / no. of columns)
    rowCount = .Parent.AutoFilter.Range.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Count / 3
    
    'If the row count is < 2, no data, change the filter criteria to find other
    If (rowCount < 2) Then
        .AutoFilter Field:=5, Criteria1:="~<>*"
    End If
    ....
