I have long column with names and it very difficult to find them.
I lose a lot of time to use the form from “menu / edit “.
I want to create search form or something ells in order to find text quickly
in column, but I don’t now.
 
Hi, Peter. First make yourself a "form", and then use Data Validation and
Vlookup to accomplish your task. Here is a sample (but ugly) form, which
uses both, to demonstrate:
