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
