Follow the steps below to search all tabs in google sheets.
To search across all tabs, start by opening the search function. In Google Sheets, you can do this by pressing Ctrl + F on your keyboard. This will open a small search bar at the top right corner of your screen.
The default search function only searches the current tab. To search all tabs, click on the three dots (more options) in the search bar. This will open advanced search options where you can change the search settings.
Within the advanced search options, you will see a setting called “Search in”. Click on this dropdown menu and select “All sheets.” Click done to save settings.
Now, click CTRL + F again and type in the keyword or phrase you want to find across all tabs in your spreadsheet. Google Sheets will automatically highlight every instance of your search term throughout all the tabs, making it easy for you to locate the information.
You can move between search results by clicking the arrows next to the search bar. This will take you through each instance of your search term, jumping between tabs if necessary. Use this to quickly find and review all relevant information in your spreadsheet.
Once you’ve found what you’re looking for, close the search bar by clicking the “X” on the search bar or pressing Esc on your keyboard. This will exit the search mode and return you to your normal view.
