    Find Function Parameters work if recorded but not if written?

    Hi Forum,

    I'm writing a Macro to search through several Worksheets for a Value.
    I've recorded the code using the Find Function & changing some of the parameters to get more exact results.
    Example, the values I'm searching for are exactly what should appear in a Cell & be in the same case, so I've made those changes in the Find Dialogue box when I recorded the Macro.
    My issue is that when I try to paste the same Macro the parts that cause errors are the 'LookAt :=Whole' and the 'MatchCase:=True' in the Find Parameters?

    Here's my code & the data I'm using is a worksheet where the Value 'EMP' occurs randomly.

    Either one will throw an error, & I wondered if anyone knows why & also how to fix this?

    Thanks Peter

    It occurs when Find method has no result.

    Hi Peter,

    What would this macro do?

    Perhaps your Selection doesn't go to the cell you want??
