Default Find value loop not working

Hi.

This loop is driving me nuts.

I want to search in a range ("A1:U50") to find cells containing th
word "totals" (there is other text in the cell);

when I find such a cell, I want to apply certain formatting to a cel
below it (this part I am ok with).

WHen it finds all the cells, I want the loop to end, but it doesn'
stop!

My code

Sub FormatMonths ()

With worksheets("unit forecast").range("A1:U50")


chktot=cells.find(what:="*totals*").activate

Do while chcktot=true
activecell.offset(1,0).range("a1").select
Selection.font.colorindex=3

cells.find(what:="*totals*").activate

Loop

End With

End Sub


Please help if you can.
