Default Search / find Formula

Hi,

what is the formular that i can use to take one cell with data in it and
shearch/find that exact data throughout my workbook? The data will be entered
differently each time.
It is exactly like the 'find function' in your edit tab. but i want to put
it in my opening sheet.

thanks

Default Search / find Formula

Not quite sure what you're wanting. Do you want the find dialogue box to
appear, or do you want a formula that will search for a word in another cell?
Former: Just press Ctrl+F

Latter: Probably want to use either the SEARCH, FIND, or MATCH function,
depending on what area you are searching.
