    Smile Search Box In Excel

    Can anyone help?

    I'm try to create a macro that searches the whole of a spreadsheet and finds any records that match.....

    I've managed to find this...

    But what I really want it to do is search and display only the records that match and give an error message if nothing is found, anyone?

    Thanks for your help.

    Sorry I'm not very good with things like this trying to learn from scratch...

    Is that code to replace all of my code or just part of it?

    I'm trying to assign the macro to a button so when you click on it it brings up the search box, you then enter what you want to find and clikc on ok. It will then bring up all records that match.

    Sorry again
