find function not working with merged cells
Because merged cells are a real pain to work with.
I've seen routines that use simple find/findnext and compare with the first address found (like VBA's help shows) go into endless loops because of the way the find fails with merged cells. Hydra wrote: I'm using the find function to locate the column in which data is located. Some of the columns have merged cells. Searching row wise the function finds the first 8 targets and then skips over the ninth one, which is in merged cell. however it finds the target in column four, which is also a merged cell. The find function is searching for values, not formulas and my target text I "$". Any reason why it is missing some targets? -- Dave Peterson |

I agree. Merged cells are evil. It's often better to use Center Across Selection.
