    Found function with exact match

    Hi Everyone,

    I run this Macros to auotmatically find values and return values of the adjacent cell.

    the problem is that it is looking for partial match rather than exact match of the whole cell

    so Cell.value = "2" and cell.value = "232" are for the purpose of the check, identical.

    Can you help please ?

    Thanks

    Yes agree with ^, recording your events carefully and then editing the code is the best way for such things.
