FlexFind; Excel Search made easy

What is Flexfind (office-js edition)

Ever needed to find a company name in the title of 25 charts? Or in formulas? Or in the header of 6 sheets? Flexfind (office-js edition) enables you to do so.

Flexfind (office-js edition) is the Office-JavaScript counterpart of our own Flexfind Excel add-in (written in VBA). Contrary to the VBA Flexfind add-in, Flexfind (office-js edition) works in both desktop Excel and Excel on-line.

Flexfind is free of charge and works in Windows and Mac Excel 365, both 32 and 64 bits and Excel on-line.

What makes Flexfind special is that it not only searches in worksheet cells. The current list of searched objects includes:

• Cell formulas
• Cell Values
• Validation formulas
• Conditional formatting formulas
• Chart ranges
• Chart titles (main title, axes titles)
• Series labels
• Shapes (their text value)
• Worksheet headers and footers
• Range names
• Comments
• Notes
• Pivot table source ranges
