Can you search for lengths with find command?
I'm using find command on a discontinuous range. (its the union of 4-5 ranges) Is there anyway to find all the cells in the range with a length of 3 without just using FindNext and checking if it's len 3? I'm looking for something like: FirstFound = Quadrants(n).Find(what:=LENGTH=3, etc. etc. SecondFound = Quadrants(n).FindNext(FoundFirst) Since its numbers I could also use val 99<1000 It would save a lot of looping time John |

Use "???" as your What argument and xlWhole as the LookAt argument. Assuming Quadrants is an array of Ranges, something like this... Set FirstFound = Quadrants(n).Find(What:="???", LookAt:=xlWhole, etc.) Set SecondFound = Quadrants(n).FindNext(FoundFirst) -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "John" wrote in message ...

Perfect. Thanks. Have to remember to reset the xlWhole to part in later finds. What other things can you put in the What:? Are there other wildcards? Is it possible to have a range of values? Like find anything between 2 and 20? Or where on the web could I find more about it. John Rick Rothstein wrote: Use "???" as your What argument and xlWhole as the LookAt argument.
