finding cell value when formula
I am trying to find the content of range("countryname") within the whole
sheet to scroll to it. I am using the following code, but it does not work because the cells I am trying to find contain the country name as formulae. it works only when the country name is written not as formulae. Any idea? Dim wks As Worksheet Set wks = ActiveSheet wks.Cells.Find(wks.Range("countryname").Value, wks.Range("countryname")).Select ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = Selection.Row -- caroline |
