Lookup part of a cells contents
Here is a start.
Sub FindSomething()
dim rng as Range
dim res as String
res = InputBox("Enter string to find")
if res < "" then
set rng = cell.Find(What:=res, _
After:=Range("IV65536"), _
LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False)
if not rng is nothing then
rng.Activate
end if
End if
End Sub
use rng to identify the remainder of the data you want to collect.

Hi,
I am trying to pull data from a list based on the results of an input
box.
The example is, I have a list off accounts "Acme1234", "AAA 3456",
"A-1 7890" etc. This list is completely variable based on account
manager.
I want to create an inputbox where I would key in "3456" and I would
get a popup messagebox that has AAA 3456 as well as several pieces of
information in that row on my spreadsheet.
Any help, as always, is appreciated.
Glen
