Supposing you have a range of data, and you want to hide the rows based on a column value, for instance, if the cell value of the column is smaller than 3000, then hide the row of the cell as below screenshot shown.

In Excel, you can use the Filter function to filter and hide the rows based on cell value.

2. Then click on the down arrow to display the filter drop down list, and click Number Filters (or Text Filters) > Greater Than (you can choose other criterion you need from the submenu). See screenshot:

Hide rows based on cell value with VBA
Moreover, if you are interested in VBA code, here I can introduce a VBA code to hide rows based on cell value.
1. Press Alt + F11 keys to enable Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications window.
2. Then click Insert > Module to open a new Module window, and paste below VBA code into it.
VBA: Hide rows based on cell value.
Sub HideRow()
'Updateby20150618
Dim Rng As Range
Dim WorkRng As Range
Dim xNumber As Integer
On Error Resume Next
xTitleId = "KutoolsforExcel"
Set WorkRng = Application.Selection
Set WorkRng = Application.InputBox("Range", xTitleId, WorkRng.Address, Type:=8)
xNumber = Application.InputBox("Number", xTitleId, "", Type:=1)
For Each Rng In WorkRng
Rng.EntireRow.Hidden = Rng.Value < xNumber
Next
End Sub
3. Then press F5 key to run the VBA, then select the data range you want to hide rows into the popping dialog (excluding headers). See screenshot:
4. Click OK, and type the criterion number into the second dialog. See screenshot:
Tip: If you want to hide rows which are greater than 3000, just change Rng.EntireRow.Hidden = Rng.Value < xNumber to Rng.EntireRow.Hidden = Rng.Value > xNumber, or if you want to hide rows whose data is equal to 3000, change to Rng.EntireRow.Hidden = Rng.Value = xNumber.
