I have a master Excel sheet with over 150 Tabs. I am trying to create a search bar that will allow me to easily view these named tabs in alphabetical order and take me to those tabs once clicked.

What version of Excel you are using? In my Excel 2016 I can use Find (Ctrl+F) function just fine. Why does this not working for you?– VylixJun 30, 2017 at 21:58

How about an alphabetized table of contents in some column, each cell would have a hyperlink to a tab ??– Gary's StudentJul 1, 2017 at 11:14

I would use the following VBA code to create a list of the tab names as hyperlinks in a new sheet called 'Index', then manually sort it.
Sub generate_DOWN_list_with_hyperlinks_of_sheets_in_the_Active_Workbook()
Dim ws As Worksheet
If MsgBox("Do you want to create a list, starting in the active cell, of all sheets in this work book?", vbYesNo) = vbNo Then Exit Sub
For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
'insert name
ActiveCell.Value = ws.Name
'insert hyperlink
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", _
SubAddress:="'" & ws.Name & "'!A1", _
TextToDisplay:=ws.Name
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
Next ws
End Sub
