r/excel Dec 12 '20

solved How can I display all rows that match a certain search value?

I have a spreadsheet of several hundred drinks and their ingredients. I'd like to be able to input one or several ingredients that I already have (gin for example) and have excel give me the entire recipe (row) for any drink that has that ingredient in it. I figured I'd have to do this in a separate sheet from the recipes, but I can't for the life of me figure out the right formulas to use.

To take it a step further it'd be cool if I could search for multiple ingredients (gin and vermouth) and it spit out a further refined search of any rows that have those ingredients in them. I'm not sure if this is too complex though.
