Hi Rick,
On Stephen Bullen's Excel MVP page

FindLink by Bill Manville would work
FlexFind by Jan Karel Pieterse would work better and is specifically designed for Find
Selecting all of the sheets and doing Find may be helpful but it really does
not work. Aside from the danger of forgetting you selected all sheets and
could permanently damage your file as any change to what you see is done
to all the other sheets in the selection as well.

Hi David!
I know how to do a Find in a worksheet.
Is it possible to do a Find in a workbook that has multiple worksheets?
This would be for Excel 2000.

Hi Rick,
Question is ambiguous to me, as to presentation, and what etc. is.
You could use Conditional Formatting in each sheet
http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/condfmt.htm
to identify text with a color and number constants with a color
condition1: =ISTEXT(A1)
condition2: =AND(ISNUMBER(A1),cf_NotFormula(A1))
with Conditional Formulas the Function MUST be in the same workbook
Function cf_NotFormula(cell)
'based on http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel...htm#hasformula
cf_NotFormula = Not cell.HasFormula And Not IsEmpty(cell) _
And Not cell.Row = 1
End Function
More information in
http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel...m#withformulas
you can use GET.CELL as described in the topic after that, but it is not without problems.

How do I find something (text, numbers, etc.) in a workbook with multiple
worksheets?
I am using Excel 2000.
