Default Excel search options?

My boss would like me to put a search box on her spreadsheet so she doesn't have to do a alt E F to search. Now I have thought about pulling all that info into a database and creating her a form but before I go through all that I was wondering if therer was a way to put a search box in excel..I have searched most of the day and ahve gone through some of my books buy I'm either over looking it or its just not there..
Anyone know the answer?

You can also use VB to program one. If I were a little more adept at VB and MS Office, I'd write a routine up for you.

Thanks Mungo...I could do that also but I'm not that good at it either...I'm better at stealing the code and changing it up to fit my needs...but really don't want to go through all that trouble either...
Think I'll pull the infor into a database and create her a form.
