Questions & Suggestions
1

Hi, I have a KM variable that holds a string usually just numbers. I want to search all spreadsheets on the computer to find rows which contain/match the value. I want to then extract all the data on the same row and just display it. How is this possible? save each column of information and display it.

Many thanks for your assistance.

Hey Ali,

What KIND of spreadsheets?

Excel? Numbers? Other?

You can’t do what you want with Keyboard Maestro.

You could do a Spotlight search and then open the found documents in your app.

And there is one app I know of that might do the job
