Default Data Search

I am new to Visual Basic Programming. I need to write a macro that will
search through a large set of data and labels to find the data I need and
report it into an organized form on another worksheet in the same workbook.
This is a part of what the data looks like:

LA BEL: M_ITEM- 12_REAR_1
Po ints Taken: 1
Actual Nominal #NAME? #NAME? Dev Out/Tol
Y: 362.3872 362.7 0.7 -0.7 -0.3128 **********


LA BEL: C_ITEM- 12_FRONT_2
Actual Nominal #NAME? #NAME? Dev Out/Tol
Y: 342.0504 342.5 0.7 -0.7 -0.4496 **********
L: 376.074 342.5


I need the macro to ignore all the text and find the data under the "Actual"
column that has an associated numeric value in the column that is labeled
"#NAME?" and copy that value into a cell on another worksheet. The macro
should continue running until the data ends. Can anyone help me write a
macro that will do this?
