    Find multiple keywords/text and copy entire row into new spreadsheet?

    I would like a way to search for multiple text within a sheet. For example I have a database of products/prices/descriptions and I want to find keywords in those fieldslike : harley davidson, airsoft, cosmetics, etc. - find those rows that have that text in one of the fields and copy all to a new page to make a new database to target those keywords. In the past the only ways I can do this are time consuming or dont work when I go to paste it. Any tips would be appriciated.

    Hi sking333 and welcome to the forum,

    I believe you can do this using an Advanced Filter. See http://www.contextures.com/xladvfilter01.html for a start.
    One test is worth a thousand opinions.

    sThis is some nice information but I haven had much success with it (but i might be doing it wrong) Can someone walk me through this. Even if i just had to use one keyword to search for and be able to copy it it one shot to the next page i could live with that.samples.txt

    sample file attached
