This does work, but for other reasons I would like to "Find" using just the date. Is there another way to do this without additional cells or formulae?

Remember to choose Values under Options. "Leonard615" wrote: I have a worksheet with 12 columns of information, one of which is dates related to the information. The dates are not in order chronologically. I'd like a macro asking the user to enter his desired date and have the macro take him to the first occurrence of that date. Tried using Find, but haven't been able to figure out how to make it work for dates. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. |
