index/match type issue
 

I am creating an order page that has Columns A (Department), B (Part Number),
C (Quantity), and D (Need By Date). The Worksheet name is "Order". What I'm
trying to do is retrieve the information in Column B and do an Index/Match
type function on Worksheet "Cut List". The cut list page has a list of 1922
parts that our Laser cuts. The part number in row B on the Order page needs
to search Column E on the Cut List page. Once the part numbers are matched I
would like Column A's value in "Order" to be the new value in Column A on the
"Cut List" page and so on. I need this process to continue on until all
parts on the "Order" page have been accounted for.

I'm looking in the books I have for something similar that I can adjust but
I'm only finding how to copy ranges from one worksheet to the other.

Try this

Sub correctPN()

With Sheets("Order")
RowCount = 2
Do While .Range("B" & RowCount) < ""
PartNo = .Range("B" & RowCount)

With Sheets("Cut List")
Set c = .Columns("E").Find(what:=PartNo, _
LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
End With

If c Is Nothing Then
MsgBox ("Cannot find Part : " & PartNo)
.Range("A" & RowCount) = "Cannot Find Dept"
Else
Dept = c.Value
.Range("A" & RowCount) = Dept
End If
RowCount = RowCount + 1
Loop

End With

End Sub

Thank you for your assistance Joel. I have a question about one part. What
is the LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole part referencing?

lookin is specifying you are look at the values in the cells. It could be
values, formuls, or comments.

lookat can be either whole or part.
