Hi everybody

I recorded a macro wich finds the word "new date" and then copies the
corresponding rows in another sheet... (no problem as far as here).

I would like if it found no occurrence it ended e gave a message as "no
occurrence found" instead of indicating a run time error.

I think it need an if command, I tried but without success...

I send the mail

Cells.Find(What:="new date", After:=ActiveCell,
LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False).Activate.

ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Range("A1").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToLeft)).Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select

Selection.Copy
Sheets("ScadenzeClienti").Select
Application.Goto Reference:="R1C1"
Selection.End(xlDown).Select

ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Range("A1").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues, Operation:=xlNone,
SkipBlanks:=
_
False, Transpose:=False
End Sub

Thanks Mario
