Try this

Sub Macro5()
Dim rFound As Range
Dim form As Worksheet

With Sheets("RA and inspect form")
Set rFound = .Columns(1).Find( _
What:="Monkey", _
After:=.Cells(1, 1), _
LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, _
SearchFormat:=False)
If Not rFound Is Nothing Then
.Activate
rFound.Select
End If
End With
End Sub

Everytime I run this code it bugs out. Can anyone tell me why? I
just want to find my monkey is that so hard. I am trying to find the
word monkey on a spreadsheet and then i will be bale to create other
code to offset from this anchor. The trick is finding the monkey.

Thanks,
Jay
