    Have a look at the VBBA help files for Find.
    Hope that helps.

    I think it's InStr you're after

    InStr( [start], string_being_searched, string2, [compare] )

    start is optional. It is the starting position for the search. If this parameter is omitted, the search will begin at position 1.

    string_being_searched is the string that will be searched.

    string2 is the string to search for.

    compare is optional. This is the type of comparison to perform.
    Rule 1: Never merge cells
    Rule 2: See rule 1
