    Developing Search Engine to search several Excel sheets

    Good Morning,
    I am currently in the process of setting a system up at work where i need to search several closed excel worksheets for relevant information

    I have read on a post on another website that someone has done this in the form of a Userform where the user enters a First Name/Surname and selects a command which searches the excel forms within a folder at a set location and then opens and indicates the information that was requested.

    I am fairly new to Excel but this is exactley what i am wanting to do Is there anyone out there who would like to try and assist me please?

    I would want the userform to do searches of three different sets of information.

    1 Search would be: Surname/First Name

    2nd Search would be: Address

    3rd Search would be VRM (Vehicle Registration Mark)

    ANy assistance with this would be really appreciated

    Your title refers to Excel sheets, but your question seems to mean workbooks.

    Can you confirm exactly what you want.
    Hope that helps.
