Parameters
- sheetIndex
- Sheet index on which to search
- searchString
- String for which to search
- caseSensitive
- Whether the search considers the case of the letters in the search string
- exactMatch
- Whether the search considers only an exact match
- alternateSearch
- Whether the search goes by alternate coordinates of column, row (instead of row, column)
- useWildcards
- Whether the search considers wildcard characters (*, ?) in the search string
- includeCellText
- Whether the search includes the content in the cell
- includeNotes
- Whether the search includes the content in the cell notes
- includeTags
- Whether the search includes the content in the cell tags or their string representations
- startRowIndex
- Index of row at which to start
- startColumnIndex
- Index of column at which to start
- foundRowIndex
- Index of row at which match is found
- foundColumnIndex
- Index of column at which match is found
Return Value
Also, the foundRowIndex and foundColumnIndex return the row index and column index of the cell in which the string is found.
