Excel macro - search/find function
A good way to learn is to record a macro while doing it manually. Then,
clean it up.

I am designing a €śbasic€ť database in work and having trouble with some
macros
The database is a record of production. Information is added at pre and
post
production. Adding the pre-production information I have sorted. A form is
filled in, submit button hit and a new row is created with the information
in.
Along this row there are gaps where post production information is
entered,
but trying to get this information to paste into the correct row I cant
do.
I have a form to fill in the information (one each for pre and post
production) which I then want adding to the database against the reference
number. Converting the information from the input form into the database I
can do for pre production, but getting the post-production data entered
into
the database along the correct row I dont know how to get there.
I believe I want a search function that takes the database reference
number
(on the post-production form) and finds this in column A. once this ref
number is found, the cell is active and I can to paste the information
from
the post production form into the gaps on the correct row
Anyone have a clue?
