Hi,
To complete Alexandre's answer, at the bottom left of attribute table dialog, 
you may choose the option "column filter" or something like that (sorry I don't 
have QGis right now) and write your text in the Edit field that appears. 
Validate.
This option filters your attribute table to only features matching your request 
and skips the "show selected features only" step.

In that case, you need to use an expression to select the desired rows.
An expression like this will probably work:

"Name_column" LIKE 'abc%'

After this you can click on the bottom left button and choose "Show selected 
features only".

If you want to make it more permanent (i.e., not dependent of the selected 
features) you can use the expression on the layers filter (right-click the 
layer > filter)

thanks Alexander, this is helpful. one more thing though, about my 2nd question 
apart from ascending and descending, is there any way i can sort by name like 
names like 'abc' only. 

result should be: all the names having character 'abc' should display.

abhijeet,

To hide certain columns you need to go to the layer properties - fields tab. 
Then, for each of the desired fields, you can set the Edit Widget as Hidden.


To sort the attribute table by an especific column, all you need to do is click 
over the column name. First click will sort it descending, the second one will 
sort ascending.


I hope it helps,

hi Alexander,

thanks for replying, 

1st- suppose i have 10 columns and i want to see only 4 columns.

2nd- similarly i want to sort my rows by specifics for eg: in the Name column 
all the attributes with last name SC should be sorted.

how can i do, what would be the expressions.

abhijeet,
Please give use the example of the expression used, and the data structure of 
your layer.

Best regards,
