    It is hard to work with a picture.

    Attach a sample workbook.

    When you are in Advanced reply, click on the paperclip to open the upload window.

    Re: Search engine

    Hello..

    I've attached some coding in your workbook that was developed on this forum awhile back; the author I cannot recall. Unfortunately it is a work around to what I believe you are attempting. I've created a different search button, which will populate a pop up search message box. You would then type in the series or child parts #, etc into it and it will populate the results where you wanted them. If this is something that helps maybe someone else can tweak it for you to get it exactly the way you want it. Best of luck!

    edited to add: You might want to reconsider re-posting this thread in the programming section, which might aid you in getting more replies.

    "Can someone tweak this workbook for me?
    I am trying to make search engine.
    Filter all the data on "Series" column that being inputted on the "Database" sheet and automatically lists down on Combo box drop down lists (Series Product).
    When i type data on text boxes (component & child parts) and click the type of series, it will populate the results (row A 21) upon clicking the show data button. Reset button will reset all the data on text fields.
