I am creating an employee directory, each department on a seperate sheet, I
have created hyperlinks to each sheet to search by department, Is there
anyway i can create a funcion on the main page to search the sheets by
employee name?

By using data validation, you can have a drop-down list of your
departments, from which you can select one. You can also set up
dependent data validation, where you can have a further drop-down list
of employees, which depends on the department chosen in the first drop-
down. Debra Dalgleish shows how to do this he

You could then have one HYPERLINK formula to enable you to jump
directly to the employee's details on the appropriate sheet.

Hope this helps.
