Userform to show records

[Jim Stewart]

Hi and thanks in advance for any help. I list many rows of incidents on 9 different sheets. What I would like to be able to do is click on a button to open a userform, then enter a codeword and have Excel populate the user form with the data from that record or I could set up a seperate sheet. Any Ideas?

You won't need the charting part of this code. You should be able to add a frame control to your userform then adjust your range(s) to suit. HTH. Dave

He must have answered on the wrong post. I'm not looking to put images on the sheet.
I want to create a userform that users can enter search data and then it will find a record matching the inputs.
I'm a novice and sure could use some help.
Thanks for looking.
Jim

This should be possible but some more information would be helpful.

What sort of search capability do you want the user to have?

Do you want to search all worksheets?

PS have you considered using Access or some other database?

This sort of thing can be done in Excel but it's the sort of thing a database is designed for.

What I'm trying to be able to do is look on 8 pages of data. I am a collector and want to be able to find an item by inputing about 3 variables.
I'd rather stay in Excel if I can.

Like I said this would be possible with Excel, but to give specifics we would need more information.

One problem is the fact that you have 8 pages (worksheets?) of data.

It would be far easier to search a single page.

Are the different pages for different categories of items?

All sheets are set up the same. Each sheet is a grade of the collection, or higher value of each item than in the previous sheet
