Search for month doesn't work for specific months
 

Hello all!

I 've created a userform to search an excel database (that is
populated by another userform) that contains a date field. This field
is formatted as mmm/yyyy so I can search it by month.
All was well until out of nothing my sub can't find specific months.

It finds the related data for january, march, june, july and november,
but not any of the other months.
In order to try and debug it I've used the exact same data in the
other fields of the db changing only the date field to the desired
month.

If I use excel's own Find, everything works as it should, the months
are found just fine.

Has anyone a clue on why this could happen?

Thanks in advance for all the help you can give.

Not without seeing your code.

Is there any reason why XL would perform the search correctly on a set
of months and not on others?
Using the same function, with the same data, just different dates
(months)?

ps.: It's not that I don't want to post the code, it's because there's
a lot of it!
