yes , thanx
the operation is good , but i didn't get result
because i have too many files
and the macro when it reading (or checking) a file .
it sent an errors that files may link to another sheet , and message to update or don't update
the process takes alot of times , then i skip it
any way to handle this error ?

You may add a line of code in the beginning like....
Application.AskToUpdateLinks = False
Application.AskToUpdateLinks = True
Here is the workbook with the lines of code added which I suggested in my previous post.

ok , great file
i triyed one known file which i know it is already exist and i know the file name
the search once found a sheet like the name i select , the process stopped and displayed the file path
i need the code to continue searching if there is another file having same sheet name
but it is really good job , i appreciate
another question , could you please add another button to search all files in a specific folder , displaying all files name in one column , and all sheets name in the following columns
here i can easily find any file i need and may be without this search
thanx alot

The code will prompt you first to input the Sheet Name which you remember and then will prompt you to select a Target Folder and search for your file in the target folder and its all sub-folders if any. If a workbook is found which has the same name as you have mentioned in the inputbox, it will list the path of that workbook in col. A.
You may need to pay attention to the msgboxes which may appear during the code execution.
See if this helps.
