Default How do you test to break out of a find loop?

Henry
I'm not trying to fob you off but have a look at the help file for find.
I personally find it one of the best references for this type of problem!

I want to use the following in a Do While Loop, but I don't know how to

test
when the value I am searching for is not found.
One additional piece of information. When I do hit on a cell that has

this
value I modify the cell so that it no longer has the value I am
Do While (??????)
Cells.Find(What:=":", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:= _
xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext,
MatchCase:=False) _
.Activate
... Test to see if value is found.... Note... If value is not found I
know I can't activate a cell, but I
don't know where the active cell will end up
..... Other Processing ....
Loop
