Default Using result of user input?

as you're entering formula not value, you need to change
this
Cell.Offset(0, 11).Value =
to this
Cell.Offset(0, 11).FormulaR1C1 =

also
Range("o7:r7").Find(What:=MyValue3).Activate
intC = ActiveCell.Column

try

intC =Range("o7:r7").Find(What:=MyValue3).Column

It would be better to trap if a find doesn't return an
answer...

Set cell = Range("o7:r7").Find(What:=MyValue3)
If NOT Cell is nothing then
intC= cell.column

' your loop goes here
For Each Cell In Range(Cells(9, intC), _
Cells(360, intC))
If Cell.Value < "" Then
Cell.Offset(0, 11).Value = "=INDEX('Raw
Data'!R1:R600,MATCH((Template!RC[-13] & _

Template!RC[- 12]),'Raw
Data'!C1,0),MATCH(R7C,'Raw Data'!R3,0))"
Range("O11").Select
End If

next
end if


Note that there's no need to activate or select cells to
use them

Can anyone please, please help?
I need to write a macro that will ask the user what week

it is, then
find that corresponding week number on a spreadsheet and

then put a
load of formula into the blank cells in that column from

rows 9 down to
360.
I can get the macro to ask for the output and find the

cells, but I
can't seem to get the last part to work. The code I'm

using is below,
can anyone tell where I'm going wrong?
Dim intC As Integer

MyValue3 = Application.InputBox("What week is it?")
Cells(3, 3) = MyValue3
Range("o7:r7").Find(What:=MyValue3).Activate
intC = ActiveCell.Column
Range(Cells(9, intC), Cells(360, intC)).Select
Dim Cell As Range
For Each Cell In Selection
If Cell.Value < "" Then
Cell.Offset(0, 11).Value = "=INDEX('Raw
Data'!R1:R600,MATCH((Template!RC[-13]&Template!RC[-

12]),'Raw
Data'!C1,0),MATCH(R7C,'Raw Data'!R3,0))"
Range("O11").Select

End If
Next Cell

End Sub
