Hi Bill,
The issue is that the term you are searching for is "hire" and your sheet has "HIRE". It's case sensitive, Excel doesn't see those two as the same word.
There's a few things we can do. If you want it to match the word HIRE and not the lower case hire, you can change the word in the code to all upper case, so just change the word in your code to "HIRE".
Another way is to use LCASE or UCASE. Excel uses LCASE to convert whatever string you feed it to all lower case letters. The way I'm using it the change is only made in memory, the results on your sheet will stay they way they are, upper case on sheet "EE". UCASE converts whatever string you feed it to all upper case letters.
So if I simply want to match the word "hire" and I want the match to happen without regard to case I can use either LCASE to convert whatever is in your sheet to all lower case and search for the word "hire" or I can use UCASE to convert to all upper case and search for the word "HIRE".
I chose the LCASE version for demonstration purposes.
