Hi everybody!!
I have a problem with this code :
I try to keep the column number corresponding to the "year" enter by the user through an inputbox. For example if I put 2016 and that this year is in the header (1, 4) so I'll store the number 4 in the variable "chx" in order to user it after. But each time it reply "year not found" while it's wrong!

If somebody has an idea about the problem!?
thank you very much!
Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to make it clear what is needed. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are demonstrated, mock them up manually if needed. Remember to desensitize the data.

The loop you have posted looks like a basic linear search algorithm. I might use Excel's MATCH() function to find the year, with appropriate error trapping if the year is not found.

For more information read following link http://www.snb-vba.eu/VBA_Arrays_en.html#L_6.16
It's about using worksheetfunctions in Arrays but principle is the same.
Thank you for your answer!
@jindon when x is defined like that can I use this variable in an other sub? Because when I use the msgbox to check it I find the good number then "0" in the other?
Not sure how you want to use it though.

It depends on how you use x, but, as jindon coded it, x is dimmed only for "procedure level" scope, so it is only defined while that procedure is running and only available to that procedure.when x is defined like that can I use this variable in an other sub?
Here's one discussion on scope. http://www.cpearson.com/Excel/Scope.aspx It is a common concept in computer science, so there should be many other tutorials and discussions out there.
Hi! everybody!!
@jindon Thank you very much that works now!!Do you now if there is a simple way for .evaluate() can find "2016" in "Word_2016"? It's not really important but in case you know...
@MrShorty Thank you this link is very interesting and those precisions!
You mean like this?

Can you quickly explain me what is between both blanks?
What is
?
Sorry for my english! I meant "brackets"!
OK, the reason I used Evaluate method is that you might have multiple 2016 and want to know each column.
Evaluate method can list all of them, if needed.
Before, it looks up the value 2016, but now it looks up "Word_2016" that means length of response from the right end.
Right(A1,Len(response)) should return "2016", if A1 contains "Word_2016".
