It does not have to pause unless you were asking for the value to lookup.
use FIND to find it and copy to the new address. Example

Sub findandcopy()
Columns(1).Find("x").Copy Range("c12")
End Sub

Writing a marco and I need a "pause" so I can copy info from another
wookbook
and insert it in the current wookbook. How do I make a macro pause,
lookup,
copy, insert and then move on?
