    Want search box to jump to searched item

    I added a search box to my excel sheet that highlights the word I search, but I want it to jump to that highlighted area when I hit enter. How would I go about doing this?

    Thank you,
    Tina

    Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and then scroll down to Manage Attachments to open the upload window.

    Your Word attachment has worked OK but you also need to attach your Excel workbook to make it easier to work on possible solutions.

    If you attach a sample of your workbook it will be easier to find a solution. Remember to remove/replace sensitive data before uploading the file. Look here if you need help with attachments:

    I will see if I can get part of my workbook from work, but it's HIPPA protected. What I'm looking for is a search box that can do the same thing as the find function. I already have the search box added to my sheet, now I want the search to jump to the line the search is on.

    Thank you for you help,
    Tina
