Searching in spreadsheets

[Brian Clarke]

I sometimes need to find a value (or the contents of a particular cell)
which is in one of many spreadsheets. I generally know the folder group that
it's in, but Windows Find often can't find it. I have even tried searching
for a value in a spreadsheet I have just seen myself, and it still can't
find it.

I assume that this might be something to do withy the way that Excel stores
data. But how can I find values / data in multiple spreadsheets?

Are you looking for a decimal number?

There was a conversation a while ago that might give you some ideas:
