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!

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 linkVERY 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?

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!.

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.

Why!!! Why!!! Why!!!??? Is it kind a joke not to add main features in Microsoft programs for MAC? We pay big money for this soft and it is limited in many things. Very strange...

I have also just made the switch from Windows to Mac (Office 365). "Find All" is a feature I use regularly.

You can, of course, search, one by one, for all instances of a matching string in Excel using the 'Find' dialogue box. But why is it still not possible to return multiple instances with just one click and then select each one in turn to find it in the spreadsheet? You have been able to do this in Windows versions for years! Also, why is it necessary to dismiss the dialogue box before you can go to the found string? This is not the behaviour of Excel for Windows. Admittedly, it could be a limitation of the Mac OS.
