For sample connection strings you can see Able-Computing

Also
Excel also has the autofilter, advanced filter, the find method under the
Edit menu.

any of these could be used to do the searching. getting the results to a
new location can be done with copy and paste.

You can turn on the macro recorder while you perform the action manually to
get sample code. Of course the recorder records your manual actions, like
selecting cells and so forth. This is usually unecessary in your actual
code, but it will give you insights into the objects and properties which
you might use.
