This is probably something simple, however I am knew to excel.

I am creeting an simple electronic diary. I have a column of dates
(A14:A74) and would like to have a search box in the same worksheet to search
through the dates and bring me to the one that i enter... is there a simple
way to do this????

date and hit find next, the found cell will then be selected, if you are
using Excel 2007 then you can use FIND & SELECT on the far right of the
home tab on the ribbon.
