this will work
Sub FindDivide()
x = Columns(3).find("LU").Address
Range([x]).Offset(, 2) = Range([x]).Offset(, 2) / 1000
End Sub

om...
I want to write a macor which will find the letters LU in Column C
them move to rows to the right to column E and divide the figure in
column E by 1000.

you don't need to evaluate a string to make it a string
Range([x]).Offset(, 2) = Range([x]).Offset(, 2) / 1000

can be simplified to

Range(x).Offset(, 2) = Range(x).Offset(, 2) / 1000

Either method will raise an error if LU is not found.

Tom Ogilvy
