Default Desperately Seeking FirstCell Find !

"LookIn:=xlFormulas" seems to work better

why not just use MATCH to find the 1 and incorporate into an INDEX formula

I am trying to search in the fist column of a range using the following
code. The problem is that the first item is never searched as it allways
starts 'AFTER' the top left hand cell, so I have a column of numbers 1 to
16 and I want to find 1, it starts at cell 2 and therfore never find the 1


Any Ideas ???


Public Function lookupRange(ByVal rangeName As Range, key As Variant, col
As Presets) As Variant


On Error Resume Next


Dim mr As Range


Set mr = rangeName.Find(what:=key, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole,
SearchDirection:=xlNext, SearchOrder:=xlByColumns)
lookupRange = mr.Offset(0, col)


End Function- Hide quoted text -- Show quoted text -
