Here is a method using an enumerated search...

Sub ChangeNumber()
Dim X As Long
For X = 5 To 10
If Range("A1").Value = Cells(X, "E").Value Then
Cells(X, "E").Value = Range("B1").Value
Exit For
End If
Next
End Sub

Can someone tell me how I would do the following:

- I have numbers in cells E5:E10; A1 and B1
- I would like to search for A1 in cells E5:E10
- On the first instance I find of A1, I would like to replace the
value of that cell with B1

What would be a simple way to write this?

Thanks,
Fish
