You could filter the results to a different workbook:

1. Create a new blank workbook
2. Choose DataFilterAdvanced Filter
3. Select Copy to another location
4. Activate the shared workbook, and select the list range
5. Select the criteria range (in either workbook)
6. Select a 'Copy to' location
7. Click OK
