Default Type mismatch error on Find

I am attempting to find a cell in a column that contains a certain
string, starting from a known location. Here's what I have done so far:

Sub OrganizeSummary()

Dim sBegRange As String
Dim sEndRange As String
Dim rFoundCell As Range
Dim rTable As Range
Dim sHeading As String
Dim sPhase1 As String
Dim sPhase2 As String
Dim vFindResult As Variant

Sheets("Summary").Select

'First, sort the current data
Range("A17", "I65536").Select
Selection.Sort Key1:=Range("B16"), Key2:=Range("A16"),
Key3:=Range("H16")

'Now start creating groupings
'First projects launched since last week
sHeading = "Projects Launched Since Last Week"
sPhase1 = "1-Launched w/Actuals"

Range("B16").Select
Set rFoundCell = ActiveCell
Set rFoundCell = Columns(1).Find(What:=sPhase1, After:=rFoundCell,
_
LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart,
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False).Activate
If rFoundCell Is Nothing Then
ActiveCell.Offset(1, -1).Select
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Insert
ActiveCell.Formula = "None"
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Insert
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Insert
ActiveCell.Offset(2, 0).Select
Range(ActiveCell.Address, ActiveCell.Offset(0,
7).Select).Select
Selection.Merge
Selection.HorizontalAlignment = xlLeft
ActiveCell.Formula = sHeading
Else
rFoundCell = Columns(1).Find(What:=sPhase1, After:=rFoundCell,
_
LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart,
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False)
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Insert
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Insert
ActiveCell.Offset(2, 0).Select
Range(ActiveCell.Address, ActiveCell.Offset(0,
7).Select).Select
Selection.Merge
Selection.HorizontalAlignment = xlLeft
ActiveCell.Formula = sHeading
End If

Range("A15").Select

End Sub

As I step through the code, when I get to:

Set rFoundCell = Columns(1).Find(What:=sPhase1, After:=rFoundCell,
_
LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart,
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False).Activate

I get Run-time error '13': Type mismatch

I already have a reference to MS VBA Extensibility 5.3, as recommended
in other postings related to this issue. Any other suggestions? Thanks!
