Using an input box to search for a value ...
 

Hi,

Wondering if someone can help me please.

I would like to have a command button on my sheet that when clicked
opens up a user input box.

The user then enters a numeric value and I would like this value to be
found on the worksheet i.e search for the value within column A or
range A1 to A65536.

If the value is found within the range then I need to activate the cell
otherwise if the value is not found then I would like a message box to
appear saying the value was not found and then show the input box
again.

Any advice on how to do this please?

Many thanks for your time.

Steve.

Would

Range("A:A").Select
Application.Dialogs(xlDialogFormulaFind).Show "", 1, 1, 1, 1, 0

....work for you?
