Oops. I meant
If ActiveCell.Value Like "C1*" Then ActiveCell.Value =
ActiveCell.Value & "Primary"

I'm basically trying to evaluate if the value in the cell begins with C1
then write the word "Primary" in the cell next to it.

When I hover over ActiveCell.Value, it give me C1ARM so I know it's seeing
it correctly, I guess just not recognizing the C1* part?
