Creating a new sheet from specific data in existing sheet
 

I would like to create a new sheet based on specific data from an existing
sheet using key text from cells in a column. I need to search a column range
and if the key text appears then I want to copy that whole row of information
into a new sheet.
For instance, if one cell, or several cells, in column range, say J2:J455,
contain the text "ABCD" then I would like to take that whole row of data, say
A5:M5, and copy it into a new sheet. What formulas do I need to contruct to
do that or does a 'macro' need to be written to do it?

You can use a macro, but you don't need to.

You can use AutoFilter instead. Click on the column and:

Data Filter AutoFilter Contains ABCD

this will hide the rows that don't contain ABCD in the desired column. Copy
the visible rows and paste eslewhere.

Are you looking for that specific entry e.g. ABCD or would ABCD be included
within other text in the cell?
