Use the LIKE operator. E.g.,
If MyString Like "Access*" Then

Hi, I have this problem:
I need to check, whether in a cell there is or not string, beginning
with "Access" I tried to make a macro, but I am not able to do it...
Example of text in cells:
Calls to Eurotel
Calls to Orange
Access No. 45687
Local Calls
Access No. 15789
Calls to Orange
Calls to Eurotel
Access No. 78896
I tried to write a code like:
Sub Check()
Dim MyString As String
Do
MyString = ActiveCell.Value
If MyString = "Access*" Then
MsgBox "I've found one!"
End If
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
Loop Until MyString = "Access*"
End Sub
Any idea please?
Marian
