    Windows Search does this already. Do a search on your computer for

    vendor, *.xls

    Re: Find a worksheet throu a key word or an excel file

    Hi,

    I am not sure if I understood correctly what anmol786 is referring. However, I may be able to relate this with my example. I have a few inventory stores, represented by Worksheets 1,2 and 3 for store1, store2 and store3 respectively. A list of inventory is in each store# worksheet. How do I find which store# is say itemA residing at and outputs the worksheet name.
