How to Search Excel for an Email Address
Specific information can be difficult to find in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet document, especially if you're not sure exactly what you're looking for. Email addresses can vary wildly in both user name (the part before the "@") and domain (the part after the "@"), which can make finding a specific address tricky. The process becomes easier, however, when you know that the "@" will be the only symbol in any email address you try to look for.
