    Filter data with a search button

    I have an excel spreadsheet that at the top I would like to have a search box and you type a specific word and it searches the spreadsheet and returns data if there is any. There are a total of 7 columns and about 120 rows. The rows can grow or shrink at any time. I would like to have a search box at the top with the 7 columns below and when you type something into the search box and click search it will search for the data you have entered and return data below. TIA!

    Thanks, but I would really like to have it where they can search and it returns the data.

    That is not how I would like to set up the spreadsheet. I am trying to make it easy on individuals that are not always familiar with excel. Thank you for your response.
