Simple but I can't get it to work? PLEASE help!!

I don't know why my code isn't working. I tried implementing some
examples I found on here after doing a search, but I received an Object
error. I have spent the past 2 hours trying to figure this out, so any
help would be appreciated. I am quite a newbie I suppose...All I'm
trying to do is as follows:

1)I need to find today's date in the range C3-BO3.
2)Once I found the cell with today's date, I need to set the cell below
it as the variable HMLoc .


It sounds simple but I tried using the Find method but got nowhere.

Please help! You will make my day!

Is this a worksheet or VBA?

Post the code you tried, the inputs and what you saw happening when you
tried

Kind regards,

This is a worksheet called "2 Months" in a workbook called "Forcast". I
just scrapped all my code, but I can re-do it if neccessary. It wasn't
working.

This code worked for me:

Sub FindToday()
Dim rCell

Range("c3:bo3").Select
For Each rCell In Selection
If rCell.Value = Date Then Range(rCell.Address).Offset(1, 0).Formula
= "=HMLoc"
Next rCell

End Sub

OK here is my code as of now, but I get a Variable not defined error.
What do I set HMloc as?


Sub ColorHM()




Range("c3:bo3").Select
Dim rcell

For Each rcell In Selection
If rcell.Value = Date Then Range(rcell.Address).Offset(1, 0).Formula
= "=HMLoc"
Next rcell

Range(hmloc).Select <--- this line is erroring out with a "variable

I figured it out. For reference, here is my code:
