    Lightbulb I need to search multiple sheets for a word, how? fairly new to excel.

    I own a music school and have created the daily run sheets in excel and successfully used vlookup's to get pay codes working, I now want to be able to find all my available times/days and have them appear on one sheet for enquiry purposes.

    Its been a while since I did the initial set up of the sheets and am a bit rusty on the coding, If anyone can help that would be great!

    1. Use [code] code tags [\code]. It keeps posts clean, easy-to-read, and maintains VBA formatting.

    Thanks for the reply,
    Not sure how to send you a sample workbook, and not sure about what you are looking for, like I said, pretty new to this whole thing and have never worked with macro before
