Hi, I'm trying to find a string of text or numbers within the entire file (across all worksheets), and if the string is present, paste the whole row and the corresponding table headers. The reason I say text instead of numbers is because sometimes the numbers will be within random text in a cell. After the word is found, I would like to paste that entire row of table data into a new worksheet with the table's headers. Ideally, it would be even better if I could just have that data saved to the clipboard (not sure if this is possible w/ VBA).

The way I've been doing it right now is using the filter function, but in order to do that I need to select a table and column first, and since the string I'm looking for will be unique to the entire workbook, I would rather be able to search across all worksheets for that text (it will always be part of a table).

Thank you for the help.


EDIT:
This is an example of what I've been using: =FILTER(A1:O41,C1:C41="Utilities")

The problem is that it's not a macro, it makes me choose a table first, and I can't run just blanket run it across all sheets but I will have to do that since the data can be in any number of 10 different sheets, and I never know which number it will be in, so I can't reference it in the macro.
