How to search in Google Sheets

If you’re working on spreadsheets via Google Sheets where you’re finding it difficult to locate words, numbers, or formulas, then there’s an easy solution to find what you’re looking for. Let’s take a look at how to search in Google Sheets.

Using the Find and Replace tool

Step 1: Open your Google Sheets spreadsheet and then select the Edit tab adjacent to File. Step 2: Click the Find and replace field.

Step 3: Within the Find box, enter the number or word you want to search for.

Step 4: Within the Search drop-down box, you can initiate the search to be applied to all your sheets within that file via All sheets.

You can also search within This sheet or a Specific range.

Step 5: Once you’ve selected an option from that drop-down menu, click the Find button. Google will display the word or number you searched for by applying a blue border around the cell it’s inserted in.

How to search for formulas

If you’re searching for a formula instead of a word or number, Google provides an option to do so. Step 1: Click Edit and then select Find and Replace.

Step 2: Tick the Also search within formulas box.

Step 3: In the Find box, enter the formula you want to search for. You can search for the entire formula or you can search for a certain formula by only typing the first part of that formula. For example, I included the result for =sum in the image below.

Click the Find button.

What is the shortcut for search in Google Sheets?

Step 1: When you have your spreadsheet open, use the CTRL button and F keyboard combination to open a search box.

Step 2: If you want to open Find and replace instead, use the CTRL + Shift + H keyboard combination on Windows or Command (cmd) + Shift + H on a Mac.
