    Question How to find text in one worksheet in another workheet

    Hi

    I'm looking for the best way to see if a value in a specific cell on Sheet1 (eg: Sheet1!A1 has value of 12345) exists anywhere on Sheet2 (could be in any row/column in Sheet2!A:V). Ideally would like to return the position of where its found (eg: the cell J21).

    Hopefully there is a somewhat easy way to do this!

    Appreciate the help.

    It appears that some other site is scraping our questions. On closer inspection it looks like that site offers no way to respond to the posted question, and the page is serving as click-bait for ads. So there is no cross-posting violation here. Someone is stealing and republishing our content.
