Add SearchBox in Excel

Post by administrator » Wed Aug 09, 2023 11:38 am

When you want to search in Excel you can use CTRL-F but you could use a SearchBox:

When you've created an Excel sheet with multiple tabs, select a tab and click in the first field.
Now click on HOME --> Format as Table:

Another option in the menu appears.
Click on Table Design and enter a Table Name:

Based on each table name you can create a searchbox now:

In the first tab select the field that should make your search visible and enter:
=IFERROR(FILTER(VSTACK(EU;ASIAN;USA);ISNUMBER(SEARCH($B$2;VSTACK(EU;ASIAN;USA))));"No Value")
Keep in mind that in the example we use the table names:
  • EU
  • ASIAN
  • USA
And use field B2 for the searchtext.
