Number search

I am trying to search for a number in a large account spreadsheet. However, the number i am looking for is the product of a formula, and therefore does not come up when I use 'ctrl F' to try and find it. How can i search for numbers that are the product of formulas?

RE: Number search

Hi Andrew

Thank you for the question.

When you press ctrl F the Find Dialog box that appears has an Options button that reveals some extra options. The last of these options is "Look in". Drop this list down and select "Values". This will now search the products of formulas rather than the formuas.

I hope that helps

Excel tip:

Removing custom dictionary entries

If you add something to the custom dictionary in Excel you cannot remove it. The way to get around this is to go into word and remove it there.
