Excel GOTO
 

I need a GOTO macro. A number say "1001" is in cell A1. When I click on the
button, the macro references cell A1 and then takes the cursor to the cell
(in column A) that holds the value in A1.

Excel GOTO
 

Put a button from the Forms toolbar on the sheet (near A1???) and assign it this
macro:

Option Explicit
Sub testme()

Dim res As Variant
Dim myRng As Range

With ActiveSheet
Set myRng = .Range("a2", .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp))
res = Application.Match(.Range("a1").Value, myRng, 0)
If IsError(res) Then
Beep 'not found
Else
Application.Goto myRng(res) ', scroll:=True
End If
End With
End Sub

Excel GOTO
 

One way (attach this macro to your button):

Public Sub MyGOTO()
Dim rFound As Range
Set rFound = Columns(1).Find( _
What:=Range("A1").Value, _
After:=Range("A1"), _
LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlWhole, _
MatchCase:=False)
If Not rFound.Row = 1 Then _
rFound.Select
End Sub
