Text Comparison
 

I have a need to test the cell contents to determine if the cel
contains specific text in any of its contents. This is like using th
"find" feature.

I want to test if a cell contains "LA" for instance. If true then
want to copy the entire cell and then compare it to another cell.

Any help?

Thanks Bil

Text Comparison
 

For X = 1 to len(Cells(1,1))-1 step 1

If Mid(Cells(1,1),X,2) = "LA" then
MyString = Cells(1,1).value
Exit for
End If

Next
