In cell A1 I have: The Sky is blue
In the input box I enter blue
After running the below (99 times) i get - Didn't Find it! - 99 times !!!

Why?

Sub Foo()
Dim T As Integer
Dim Z As String
Z = InputBox("Enter key word") 'enter blue
T = InStr(1, Z, ActiveSheet.Range("A1"), vbTextCompare)
If Temp 0 Then
MsgBox "Found it!"
Else
MsgBox "Didn't Find it!"
End If
End Sub

Another reason to always include Option Explicit in your VBA routines.

From the menu bar:
Tools/Options
Editor
Select: Require Variable Declaration
