When searching for something, often the object found is in a filed amongst
thousands of others. Relevent information is often along side the entire row.
It is easier to scroll and view what you will from the entire row, if
highlighted.

A tickbox in the search window should allow for either the entire row,
column, both or neither to be highlighted (and choice of colour).

Like searching in the Mozilla browser, the word is highlighted, often
inverted.

You could write a macro to do this.

If you think you have the ear of an Excel developer, think again.

Just us people like yourself here.

To possibly have this feature added to the next version of Excel.........

I have not seen a question in your post(s).

I assumed you were only making a suggestion on how to improve the Find
feature.
