This will look in all sheets in the file and select if found. Put it in your DIR loop for all files in the folder.

Sub lookinallsheets()
For Each ws In Worksheets
With ws
Set mf = .Cells.Find(What:="whattolookfor", LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext)
If Not mf Is Nothing Then
.Select
mf.Select
End If
End With
Next ws
End Sub

There will never be more than 1 of the same number. I just need it to
select the sheet that it's on and then select the cell where it's
located. Thanks in Advance

If you are saying you want to look for it on all sheets you can wrap in a
loop
for each ws in worksheets
ws.Select
Cells.Find(What:=IndividualSearch,
LookIn:=xlValues,LookAt:=xlWhole).Activate
next ws

Or, are you saying there could be more than ONE hit?? BTW you don't need to
select to work with the found item. More info??

I almost have the code the way I need it. BUT I want it to Find
everything within in the same Workbook, not just on the Index
Worksheet. Thanks in advance!!!

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim IndividualSearch As String
IndividualSearch = InputBox("What's the part number you're looking
for?", "Name Search entry box.")
If IndividualSearch = "" Then Exit Sub
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
Worksheets("Index").Select
Cells.Find(What:=IndividualSearch, LookIn:=xlValues,
LookAt:=xlWhole).Activate
Exit Sub
ErrorHandler:
MsgBox IndividualSearch & " not found.", 64, "No such animal."
End Sub
