Default Input Box flaw?

JonathanK1;1610807 Wrote:
I have an input box that searches column 8. Ok, no problem. It
pulls the data (copies it) and pastes it. Except that it's pasting
some of the wrong data/rows.

For example, the input box is year but when I enter the year (e.g.,
2007), it copies the rows with 2007 in column 8 but also brings me
back other years as well (2006 rows gets mixed in). Is there a way
to keep this from happening? it should only be searching row 8, not
the other rows (and I can't see anything remotely close to these
numbers in any other cells anyway). It's not that helpful if it
keeps doing this (and it happens every single time I query).

(working.Cells(x,8).Value) = TheAnswer Then
working.Rows(x).EntireRow.Copy

Thanks.


Basically, is there a way to specifically exclude the other columns?
I know it's only supposed to be searching column H (8), but it's
obviously not. Would excluding the others specifically even help?


This is doable! Please provide the code as asked for!
