Hey Everyone!
This is the first time I have posted on here. I am working on a tracking device with excel. It is a data base of retailer information. Each has a unique retailer ID number in column A and I have a total of about 2100 retailers listed each in their own row. I have built this for multiple users so that I can compile each of their progress each week. The problem is that most of the people using this do not know much about quick searching or anything to help them to conveniently find the proper retailer without scrolling for 5 minutes. I have tried explaining the F5 search and using the namebox in corrolation with a vlookup function with no avail.
What I think I am needing is a Macro that can be activiated by clicking a hyperlink (i am new to working with macros and by new, I mean, I do not knwo how to write the code for them) that will bring up an entry box that will allow a number search in cloumn A and then travel to that cell if it is found.
Thanks for any help anyone can offer me.
Also, maybe a brief explanation of any problems I may have by sending a workbook with macros to multiple people. I do not know if they will need to allow them or do anything on their part.
Thanks Everyone!:up::up:
