Default In a cell find words, copy and paste in another cell

Hello

I apologize. In my previous question I did not include the code form Ron
that I'm testing.

Excel 2003
I have a sheet with six columns with 700 rows each with text. I have to red
all rows to find a word and copy and paste in the same cell of column b. This
is really heavy task and the risk of error is a problem. I 'm looking for a
code to do this task.

I have been trying the code from Ron de Bruin I found in this forum but when
I run the code this message is displayed:
Run-time error :1004:
Application defined or object defined error
I am learning VBA, I don't know hot to fix the error.

First I have been trying the search with in one column

I have a Sheet with 6 columns (F,G,H,I) with 700 rows.
I need a code to do this:
1. Read F:1 if find the word Apple, Then copy and paste the word in cell B:1
2. Go to F:2 if find the word Apple, Then copy and paste the word in cell B:2
3. Same until F700

If possible do the same application in Columns G, H, I

This is the code form ROn de Bruin

Sub Find_First()
Dim FindString As String
Dim rng As Range
FindString = "Apple"
If Trim(FindString) < "" Then
With Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A:A")
Set rng = .Find(What:=FindString, _
After:=.Cells(.Cells.Count), _
LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlWhole, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False)
If Not rng Is Nothing Then
rng.Offset(0, 1).Copy rng.Parent.Range("D2")
Else
MsgBox "Nothing found"

End If
End With
End If
End Sub

Your help is welcome
