Hello,

I have read a number of posts, on this subject but the answer has been
elusive.

Essentially my worksheet gets reused each year, so to find the correct
first day of the year I set a variable to cell B6 in the first line.
This cell does hold a date value. On the sheet containing the column
of dates, I set the first date in the column to be = the date in B6.
So essentially they should hold the exact same date value, the only
difference is how I formatted the date to show.

However, the code does not find the date! Any insights would be
appreciated.

Greg


FindDate = ActiveSheet.Range("B6")
Worksheets("Seg Proj").Activate
Set FoundCell = Columns("A:A").Find(What:=(FindDate),
LookIn:=xlFormulas)

'check to see if found for debug purposes
If FoundCell Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "wasn't found"
Else
MsgBox FoundCell.Row
End If

FoundCell.Activate
