    Find and Replace when needed Code

    Hello guys, at my project (I send a sample file to see it) I have 2 sheets (sheet 1 and sheet 2) . At the sheet 1 there are 2 headings "Rank" and "Name" and below those headings in cells B4 and C4 you can write the Ranking and the Name of a person (for example Rank 1 , Name George). Then there is a button that is titled "Add". When you press it, the data goes to Sheet2 in two columns (A:B) where column A is the Rank and Column B is the Name. The code I used for the button is :

    Now what I need is that in the same code (when you press the "Add" button) to have a code that will search the range A1:B50 and if it finds a previous entry (for example Rank 1, Name George) it will delete the content of those two cells and will place in that cells (that have been cleared) the new entries for example

    Old data

    1 George
    1 Peter
    1 Michael
    2 John


    New data

    3 Peter

    Should be Now

    1 George
    3 Peter
    1 Michael
    2 John

    Thanks guys for your time

    Hi,
    Is there any special reason why you do not attach the file WITH the macro?
