Since you made the effort to do it yourself, you may like this.

Option Explicit
Sub Findnum()
Dim mc As String
Dim myfind As Range
Dim mynum As Long
mc = "a"
mynum = InputBox("Enter number desired")
MsgBox mynum
Set myfind = Columns(mc).Find(What:=mynum, _
After:=Cells(1, mc), LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False)
If Not myfind Is Nothing Then Range("a1") = myfind
End Sub
