ooops, i got it. i should not have put the cell at the beginning. thank
you. ok now that i have that i need to take it up a notch.

the cells look like this:

Families with dogs Chapter 1

the script i am using finds the cells based on an input box. in this
case i use "Chapter" to find the cells. i need to copy the chapter
number into column "A". the chapter number will range form single digit
to double digit. Any ideas?

God bless

I am using a script to search out cells with specified text within a

action is a number needs to be placed in another cell of another

to place a "0" in column "B".
i am currently using the line below to do the task: i would like to not
rely on an offset and have it find column "B" can anyone help me with
this please.

cell.Offset(0, -12).Value = "0"
