Another point I forgot to mention Gary is that Application.Match is useful in
testing if a value exists in an array.

I would guess that Find is aesthetically better, as it is not Excel
dependent, and has more flexibility in the search pattern and then looking
for next. Match scores if you want to do a nearest value find. Horses for
courses I guess. I tend to use Application.Match in responses I give, but I
actually use Find more in my own code.

I have no idea if one is faster ( I would guess Find), never had the need to
time it.

right now i'm using find to search a row of values for an item, if it find
it, i use the rngfound row to enter some data below. if it doesn't find it,
it adds an item to the range.

i could use application.match to return the position, too, so i'm just
wondering if one way is preferred over the other.
