Thanks very much for the reply, Dave.

Security WAS set at High; I set it to Medium.

You asked: "And did you put findpattern in a general module--not
behind a worksheet and not behind ThisWorkbook?" I dunno' what that
means. Still,...

When I went to "Tools/Macro/Security", I saw the "Macro/
RecordNewMacro".
Maybe I didn't RECORD or SAVE the macro how it should have been saved.
I tried the RecordNewMacro thing, and re-typed the entire thing,
starting at a random cell... G8
IN the personal.xls file. Then saved it.
Then exited Excel.
Then restarted it.

It still doesn't work.

Any ideas, people? Thanks in advance.
