Hello,
I have the following macro which works fine except when it cannot find a
file that match the search string.

When it does not find what it is looking for it goes to cell A1 in the
starting workbook where the macro button is and dumps the list of file
names it found in the directory searched... and overwrites whatever is
there. The user starts by selecting a cell in column G and press the
Hyperlink With Job Search button. It asks for a string to search and
creates a link to the appropriate file in the folder.

I would like the macro to say it did not find the file and to try again.

I'd appreciate any help with this.

Denis
