Default How to Select a relative range with Using "Find" and Offset()

XL 2003

The following works fine:

Sub OneCellText()

Dim MyRange As Range
Dim MyCell As Range
Dim TempVar As String
Set MyRange = Selection

For Each MyCell In MyRange
If MyCell.Value < "" Then TempVar = TempVar + MyCell.Value + Chr(10)
Next MyCell
Range("E41").Formula = TempVar
End Sub

I would like to "compute" MyRange as follows:

Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS").Activate
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 3).Range("A1:E10").Select

Where things get tough is that the W/S that I review have
merged cells in many places. Merged cells seem to screw
up what .Range("A1:E10") selects. (Meaning, if I un-merge the merged cells
then .Range("A1:E10") works perfect. But with merged the selection of
..Range("A1:E10") picks up a different range)

Also, I am not sure how to formulate the ability of the macro to select the
row range to include all rows from
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 3) (above) XLDown to the first cell that is empty. In
addition, the Column range to move XLRight
to the first cell that is empty.

In short, how do I,
1)work around the merged cell vs. Offset()issue? (Note:
I can not change the merged cells (rights issue)

2)enhance the macro to compute the range to insert into
"MyRange" in the first macro?

Thanks, Dennis
