Description walidz 2009-09-28 10:27:28 UTC
In ms excel, if I want to search for a text in an Entire Workbook ,
the results are listed in a List Box , so that I can review them easily in ANY
ORDER  (very intuitive) , however Calc does not have this feature; it has the
classic way of find and find next , 

Another benefit of this feature is that " it acts like a query" ;
in order to clarify this, I attached a XLS file that contains a monthly overtime
hours for employees.
now if I want to know "employee A" in which months he has overtimes hours. 
in ms excel  : i can search for "employee A" in the entire workbook , and I
immediately know that he has overtime hours in Jan./Feb/April but not in march ,
however in Calc it is really very difficult to fetch this results

1- Open the attached file in ms EXCEL
2- press control+F to open the "Find and Replace" dialog 
3- enter text : employee A
4- in the "within option" choose workbook
5- then press find all 

6- see the attached picture
