Default Search field?


Is it possible to place a search field at the top of a column that will
display all of the matching entries below it? Or is it just as easy to
use AutoFilter?

Thanks, this forum is a big help.

I'd use autofilter.

I think that if you're worried about the users not knowing how to work with the
autofilter, then a little training would be in order.

Just think of the other workbooks that can be created by just using the stuff
built into excel.
