You may actually prefer FINDNEXT instead. Look in the vba help index.

The macro is working correctly for me. Are you perhaps wanting to search
for
"Smith" surrounded by other text or spaces? If so, you could make the
following change:

For lCount = 1 To WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Columns(1), "*smith*")

I am creating a simple find loop to find all the "smith" entries in
column A.
I copy & pasted this code from Ozgrid and modified slightly.

Sub findSmith()

Dim lCount As Long
Dim rFoundCell As Range

Set rFoundCell = Range("A1")
For lCount = 1 To WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Columns(1), "smith")
Set rFoundCell = Columns(1).Find(What:="smith",
After:=rFoundCell, _
LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False)

rFoundCell.Select
MsgBox ("You are here.")

Next lCount
End Sub

However, it only finds the first instance of "smith" in column A and
stops.
Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thank you, JSnow
