How can we improve Excel for Mac?

← Excel for Mac

Add Find all in the Mac app

IN the windows version you can click on the button find all when you are in a search box. This then shows you all cells which contain your search criteria in a list. Please add this feature to the Mac app, too!

    I got stuck working on a mac for a while and this drove me up a wall. I know for a fact that some ahole in MS is getting a kick out of this. Because why else would you do such an evil thing? Wouldn't it take like a mid-level developer like 1 day to add the code?

    Please add "find all" function in Mac Excel, it's important function. Why Mac Excel no this important function. :-(

    Not Me, below, said it perfectly. I am so sick of having to click "Find Next" on 1000 row work sheet to get to the last entry I'm looking for. And if happen I to miss the entry I'm looking for I have to go around horn again. Ridiculous!!!

  • Not Me commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    It's ridiculous that this feature isn't in the Mac version. Please add it. What a pain to go through Find Next Find Next Find Next Find Next, etc etc etc etc. See what I mean?

    On my old PC computer I used the find function to find all then select a color and it would color all and save.
    On my MAC the Microsoft office 365 this function does not work, Please help.YES PLEASE DO THIS!
    I don't really understand why it wasn't already that way.
    Find All is one of the most useful things about excel.

    Without "Find All" option, broken external links are impossible to find.
    I have several files that I have to go through error message screens every time I open them because I haven't been able to locate the missing / broken external link

    VERY frustrating to not know if vital link is not updating

    Where there is a will there is away.
    Copy the Row - Find and Replace all with a wild card. now sort by your replacement.

    This borders on an illegal tying agreement, trying to force Mac users to buy a PC in order to get the full functionality of the software. MS targets the functions it knows are useful, like the FIND ALL function and holds it back. Or take the clipboard option. Works great on a PC, very efficient. It's not there on a MAC.

    I think I am going to start investigating filing a class action. This is getting ridiculous.

    TO ADMIN: It is now over a year that you received the FIND ALL option suggestion for Excel for Mac. Frankly I am getting tired of Microsoft advertising Microsoft Word for Mac, Microsoft Notebook for Mac, Microsoft Outlook for Mac, Microsoft Excel for Mac. This is misleading advertising. Each of these products should have the name LIMITED MICROSOFT ______ for Mac. When is Microsoft going to get over this petty behavior of constantly shortchanging Mac users?

  • Janet commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    I find it truly petty that Microsoft short changes Mac users on several features in Excell 2019. Frankly, I believe it is a marketing misrepresentation. It is advertised as Excel/Word/One Note, etc for Mac. A more accurate representation should say "Reduced features version for Mac!.

    when you search to find something, make it so you can select all instances of it at once

  • Alex Barnes commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Please add. I really am perplexed as to why microsoft makes an inferior product (less functions) in their Mac product as opposed to Windows product. We should be able to get the same program.
