I'm trying to learn how to use the FIND method. So far I have never been successful. Sorry, but the code I posted never finds $E$13. It may have something to do with the fact that I'm searching for a date. I used "Range(E13)" as the search arg, because I could never get a variable to work, so I figured the code I posted SHOULD work. It doesn't. I've tried adding SearchOrder and SearchDirection in various combinations, but no help. The VBA Help is woefully inadequate at explaining its args. (Moan)
