    Exclamation How do I search entire workbook and return a value on another worksheet

    Hi All
    I am working on a price list with the following:
    •Products are grouped per product category per worksheet and each containing about no less than 2000 lines per worksheet. I have total of 9 worksheets. (Each worksheets has formulas like currency conversion, markup prices etc.. to arrive to a retail price)

    Question:
    I need to create a summery sheet for most popular products.
    How do I get excel to search the entire workbook and return the value on a designated cell, so that I have the price a specific product in the summary sheet and me not to do search every time and I can also print a simple pricelist say for a smaller customer.
    Simple English is very much appreciated as I am not a very technical person.
    Thanking you in advance.

    Hi,

    I have updated the formula in the attached file. However, there are some products which are reflecting in 2 tabs with different prices & in this case the formula would pick up the matching price from the first sheet.

    Regards,
    Chandra
