Default search cells in multiple columns of same row

I am trying to write a script that looks for a cell with specified text
in a specified column, once it finds the cell it needs to check six
different columns (a,b,c,d,e,f) one row above and find the column that
has an "x", it then needs to place an "x" in its row one column to the
right form the previous "x"

example: if it finds the cell with "Went up the hill" the script needs
to look up one row and check columns (a,b,c,d,e,f) until it finds the
"X".

In this case it will find the "X" on the row with "JACK AND JILL" in
column "a" so it will place an "X" for the row "Went up the hill" (the
orginal cell searched for) in column "b"

a b c d e f g
X JACK AND JILL

Went up the hill

To fetch 3.5 Pales of
Water

God bless
