I've been doing this search problem for two days now, and finally, after watching your video, I found a solution to my problem.Thank You Sir.
This was exactly what I was looking for to try and put a search function into a spreadsheet I've been working on! Thank you so much for sharing this easy to follow and informative tutorial ♥
Your method of teaching makes everything look easy, you're my most important resource of learning google sheets, thank you so much !
Fantastic tutorial ... you just saved me and my team a ~huge~ amount of time and effort.
Thanks for taking the time to produce and share this tutorial.
Love it how implanted the split them join to create such a loop! Amazing idea, more to it I've adjusted the AND to OR too show all data in single words, thanks a lot, gonna be watching more and more of your vids to learm more too, never thought SQL could be such fun and amazing language and excitingly challenging to use to help me out big time with my needs 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@Ömer Faruk Akkaya @21:12 see the AND after JOIN! ... change the AND to be OR, so by this the query will turn the results to anything that contains any of the words/letters you put in your search criteria. if you put DRESS BABY it will show you any results containing ANY of these two words and not necessarily containing both, hope it cleared for you ;)
Absolutely brilliant tutorial my guy! Very easy to follow, and educational! Thanks for putting this video together, and it definitely helped me save time searching data within my CRM! Best - Arnell
again.... you are "THE" SOLUTION....
At the beginning of the video, I was looking at it and thinking: "Oh...boring, every newbie knows that"... but later, close to the end... the only words in my head were: "What a tricky mo***fu***, u got me!"
Big thanx for that tutorial.
to make it search for multi columns:
_=QUERY(data,"SELECT * WHERE D LIKE ""%"&B2&"%"" AND (C LIKE ""%"&B3&"%"" OR B LIKE ""%"&B3&"%"") ",1)_
notice that AND & OR are logic gates and you should change between them if there is no result
The Real MVP
This man needs to get pray for his kindness

Thank you for the tutorial! Easy to follow, but I also learned some functions of formulas as well! We created a searchable database of flavors and nicotine strengths for our vape store with this. You've given my workers a nice cheat sheet for sure! Thanks again! 🙂

Hey there, can i ask question? About your video? Is it possible that if i can and search function on specific sheet it can able to update the data also ?
thank you so much for sharing. I just want to ask to you if what is your advise to control the simultaneous flashing of result from the query using the QUERY ONE function when the google sheet users had type their own searching data in the search box at the same time? Thank you very much
Great! In a drop-down can you allow multiple selections instead of only one?
This is spectacular, simply Amazing!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!
Greetings from Colombia friend
Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks man
Thanks for clear explanation. You are wonderful tutor.
Really nice for me to get it resolved my issue but same thing how can i do it for multiple sheet to fetch the same result
Very informative
Thank you
Thank you so much for this tutorial.
Glad it was helpful!
Greetings. I'm looking to query from a dropdown a data set that does not always exactly match the reference in the dropdown. I've tried CONTAINS, LIKE, wildcards (such as %), and it doesn't work. For example, my data would include "Kites Red", "Kites - Red", "Kites Blue", "Kites - Blue", etc. When the dropdown shows "Kites - Red", the "Kites Red" results do not appear. What query syntax can I use that will result in both "Kites - Red" and "Kites Red" showing as search results? Thanks.
Perfect video i have ever seen
Thankyou so much
very helpful, thanks

how do you also pull through the hyperlink in the data sheet as well? So say your skirts has a hyperlink to open up a video and you need this hyperlink brought through so that you could click skirt and watch the video?

But I've no idea how to create this when I've few different data in multiple sheets, looking for it
Your help has been invaluable. Thank you
Thank You!
Wow
What would the query be to search multiple tabs/sheets?
Can I do the search on the whole array instead of just one column?
This was exactly what I was looking for Thank you for share this tutorial
Thanks for watching 👍
Thank You Sir from Cambodia and this help me a lot. would u mind create Query related to Bar Chart report or Graph Analysis in the next video? Thank You.
Wow, this is great. A million thanks. Please, supposing you want to generate a cost for two different items, how do you go about??
Great video helped alot with me searching but I have a question how can I do this search to entire workbook or multiple worksheets? Can you please help?
I Love You So Much
This is a great tool and you explained it very well! Thank you!! I just have a question. Is there a way for the search results to be blank when the search drop-down is empty?
Yeah. I have the same question. How can you have all the options show when the field is blank?
Your video is excellent but can you please share the sample file too so that it gets easier to along ?
=QUERY(data,"SELECT * WHERE 1=1 “&”AND LOWER(E)LIKE LOWER(“”%” &JOIN(“%””) AND LOWER(E)LIKE LOWER(“”%”, SPLIT(B1,””))&”%“”)”,1)
Thank you SO much!
Thanks for the apostrophes info
Sir U are great person
helpful content thank you !
Excellent ! Very useful.
Thanks, very helpful. Following most of your tutoring.. Just want to find out why after search result when you edit any data, all search data disappears and the formula reruns errer
How can I pull an image also, (one of my columns is an item image, rest are the names and numbers). There must be some kind of workaround to get the image aswell when using the searchbar?
i have used this and thank you for this video
Love it! Thanks bro! This is so good!
Hello, this was very helpful but I was wondering how to do something. Is there a way to search for things in multiple columns at once?
Thanks bro, big help!
Congrats for your channel ... it is helping me a lot ... keep the great job man !
This was a great explanation. If I wanted to edit one of these records, how would I either edit it here and update the main sheet, or how would I like to that record so I could edit it in the main sheet?
thanks for the video .really appreciate your help
Great Job!!! Thank you so much!! I wanted to ask you to do something like this....but you had the Idea before I could ask!! Thanks!!!
As always absolutely fantastic
Hello,
So I want to do a thing, when I search for example: an apple, it will check all the lists and when it finds the word apple, it will show it under the search bar (like in the video, but it will check all lists).
Is that possible?
Can you help me?
Thank you soo much! You are a life saver :)
Very useful class. You taught how to use query function with examples of region and reps. Can we have search option along with regions and sales reps. 🤔
Thank you so much!
There's anyway to make the results of the search to carry the text formatting used in the data?
Awesome tutorial.
Good job 👍
This is awesome, just started using this. Wondering how to handle B2 being empty - split function doesn't like it. I'm trying to include ALL results in the query if B2 is blank?
Good stuff! thank you so much :)
I love this tutorial, your tutorial is very great 🔥. I just using it to my data and it works, but I just confused and want to ask if i want to using this formula to search a unique code number from my list, is it using a same code? Or there's different code?
Because when Im using this code for searching number it didn't shown up the data
How do you have this search box search through 2 different Columns for the same word(s)? Keep the same layout as you see in this video but it will search thought Column D and Column E for "baby Dress toddler" Thanks!
Very usefull, thx
I am using IMPORTHTML but the Query isn't reading the table I pulled in. Is there a workaround?
Use FILTER function
Is there a way to have the query function, pull from two or even three different columns in seperate search cells? So example I want to search the Location Column (E column), The Job Column (F Column), the Availability Column (G column), and I want each Search (location, Job, Availability) to be in their own separate search cells as drop down lists. So in Cell A5 is drop down search function for Location, in B5 is Drop down Search Function for Job, and C5 is Drop Down Search for Availability. I want to give the searcher several options on how to find the Artists that fits either one or search parameters.
You can try something like this (where A1=1st dropdown and A2=2nd dropdown). QUERY('Raw Data'!A1:E, "select * Where A is not null "&"IF(A1="AllResults",""," AND Lower(A) = Lower('"&A1&"') ")&IF(A2="AllResults",""," AND Lower(B) = Lower('"&A2&"')"),1,)
Found Simpler solution based on AND Statements =QUERY(Your Data Range,"SELECT * WHERE E LIKE ""%"&A1&"%"" AND F LIKE ""%"&A2&"%"" AND G LIKE ""%"&A3&"%""",1). Also, you can supplement those ANDs with ORs so that you don't get blanks/errors.
@@marcobanderas3306 Hello, can I ask you questions?
Thank you very much
doesnt work for me :( maybe something with the spaces in the formula (still struggling with the first basic query in the video) any help?
Really thank you Buddy
Hi please badly needed help. I want to add cell where i can search for another column like C4 will search in column D, D2 will search in column H etc. How can i add in this function? Thank you
Thank for the tutorial
Thank you so much
Could anyone can share a code about searching not just only 1 column (E), but 2 or more any columns?
In this instance, I want to search the name of a person too.
Thank you.
this is a very helpful and useful video but i have more question. Is it possible to do Query with Number bc i tried to do the same as you teach but it doesnt work for me . please help
thank you :)
Same here
If i have a database with some information, and i work totally on a new sheet. For example, if i write: (A) name, (B) surname, (C) phone, (D) email, how can I get on (E) confirmation that already exists?
Hello there. I have a long log of footage in spreadsheets. The scene descriptions are in cells that contain a significant amount of text and when I search for a word, I am always shown the whole cell, but not the word itself, which in my case is a bit of a problem. Is there a way to get a search result that is more detailed than just the cell where the particular text string is? This would be very helpful, thanks!
awesome..
Thanks 😊
The last part was so good! Thanks, man. Is it possible to make it more dynamic? Like selecting the column we wanna search?
Sure. Just make a VLOOKUP with a helper table that maps the column selection to column letter and use it in your select statement. Or at least that's one way :)
Thank you! Is there a way to lock the search box so that when one person enters a search it does not filter down the data for other users looking at the sheet?
No, but you should be able to user FILTER VIEWS to get something similar to what you want.
You're awesome, my friend
Genius!
How did you add the keymoments like that in the description?
Hey brother I loved this video, in the small chance you see this, what if there is typos? It seems to break the query thank you
I have noticed that if we put value that contains a "-" then that value is not retrieved from the cell. E.g. Range"A1" put value "123456-78945". If i use select statement then this value is not retrieved, however, If use 123456789459887654 (a longer value) then its retrieved. Can you make a video to explain this, please?
Is it possible to not return any value if the search field is empty???
Data Validation option has changed and now won't let search of multiple words occur. It only yields first option from alphabetical list.
In the "Search Contains Words" when there's nothing in the search field it comes up with #VALUE!. How do I get it to display everything like at 9:20?
Wrap JOIN(...) with ISERROR(JOIN(...), "")
Also, let me get this Straight, so let's put this in some kind of Useful Perspective, if I have a list of Model Numbers for an Inventory of items I have to Write a Formula for Everything in my Stock or the Search Function is not going to find it?
Where can I find the google sheet so that I can follow along with you?
Thank you so much.
