Searching for misspelled words in Excel worksheets can be eye exhausting, as you might easily lose sight of cells or skip a few of them. It is easier to use an application that can find similar words and pinpoint their cell location.

Similar Data Finder for Excel is a nifty add-on that finds similar keywords and cell values in Excel spreadsheets. In order to be able to use the application you need, as its name says, Microsoft Excel and .Net Framework installed on your computer.

The add-on utility searches for similarities between each cell value in a Excel worksheet, and then it displays the most relevant results found.

You can select which search method will be used, as the application uses two different methods. The first method relies on percentages, meaning that you can specify the percentage of different characters from each string of words.

The second method uses fixed numbers of different character values, giving you the option to specify how many different symbols can two or more words have in order to pass as similar. You can choose to ignore identical cells in search results.

Once found, each similar keyword is displayed in a result window, along with some details, such as cell position or complete cell text. You can select to modify a cell, or mark it for further analysis. You can perform fast row and column deletions using the application.

Similar Data Finder for Excel can help you correct your spreadsheets by finding similar cell entries with ease. This means you do not have to search for them manually, as the application does all the work for you.
