Find Method Returns A String Instead Of A Range
Jun 24, 2009For some reason, it seems that this following line returns the value its supposed to be searching for instead of the range where it finds the value.

Find Method Only Returns 2nd Value In Cell
Mar 11, 2014My .find function is only finding the 2nd value in a cell example If i look up the term " HOSE"
5/8 hose water Will return
5/8 heater hose will not
Basically what I am making is something I am calling a "what" button. It queries my database and returns all the part numbers with the term i put in and i thought it was working fine till i was testing it, did i do something to select this? I've tried xlpart and xl whole. Neither is working.
Here is the code below
Sub COPYPARTNUMBERINFO()Dim parttofind As String
Dim partcell As Range
Dim partref As Range
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="*******"
Range("t6:T10000:u6:U10000").Select
Selection.ClearContents
parttofind = InputBox("What is the number or discription")

View 9 Replies View RelatedRange.Find Method On A Hidden Range
Feb 12, 2010I have a module that contains the lines below:
Dim myRng as Range
set myRng = Range("B1:B100").Find(what:= "Symbol")
I have run this module frequently and successfully over the past several months, during which time Column B has been hidden. When I tried to run it today I got a Run-time error 91: Object variable or with block variable not set. I checked to see that "Symbol" was present in the stated range (it was), and noted that when I went to debug the Run-time error, myRng was 'Nothing'.
Now I find that if I unhide the column before the set myRng statement, the code runs without a hitch.
My question is: Is there a known restriction on the Range.Find Method that prevents its use on a hidden range?
How To Incorporate If Statement With Find Method In A Range
Jun 22, 2014I want to search the selected range for a variable value (calculated previously in the sub) and if it finds the value I want the sub to do some things. If it's not in the range I want it do something else.
Here is the relevant section for what I have:

This works and cuts the value I'm looking for if it finds a value in the range. The problem is it's not in the range I don't know how to tell it to follow other instructions. I tried the "iserror" with an in statement, but it said the range was not set. Intellisense isn't working and I don't really know how to use the .find method ...

Excel - UDF That Returns String Of Multiple String Objects / Possible To Color Font?
Sep 19, 2012I have a udf that returns a string to the cell. The string is made up of multiple string "objects". What I am wondering is if I can set the font color of certain objects so that when the final string is built and returned, the font of those portions is set.
Ex. of simple idea (this is not actually my code, just a way to illustrate. I realize there is no point to this UDF):
VB:
Function StringReturn (Str1 As String, Str2 As String, Str3 As String) As String
StringReturn = Str1 & Str2 & Str3
End Function
Now what if I wanted Str1 and Str3 to be blue, and Str2 to be red for example. So that when the UDF calculates it would return: Str1Str2Str3

Error 'Method Range Of Object Global Failed' On FindNext Method
Dec 10, 2008I'm trying to get the Find and FindNext methods to work. Column C contains serial numbers and there's a chance that a serial number might appear more than once in the column. What I'm trying to do is get Excel to find the first occurance of the serial number, find what row it's on and then see if this matches the variable 'CurRowNo' (defined earlier in the code). If it doesn't I want it to look at the other occurances of the serial number, find what row they're on and see again if it matches CurRowNo.
The variable 'EngCount is the number of occurances of the serial number (also worked out earlier in the code). I've got the code below, but I get the error 'Method Range of Object Global Failed' on the FindNext line. I have no idea what this error means or why it's happening.

FIND Value In String Perform Lookup From Range
Oct 6, 2009I have account information with 4-digit customer location identifiers beginning at character 9 and ending at character 12:
3600820040010500050006080000360082004004050005000503000036008200400105000500068900003600820040050500050006880000360082004001050005000402000036008200400105000500052320003600820040030500050005271000
No matter what changes in this string, these four digits (9, 10, 11 & 12) will always be in the same position.
What I would like to do is (I think) use the FIND funtion and then perform a VLOOKUP against an already defined table/range which identifies the actual location in the destination cell. Will FIND be the easiest for me to do this our should I use something else?
The what to interpret characters 9-12 (using 3600820040030500050005271000 as an example):
3600820040030500050005271000
4003 is the location information which consistantly breaks down:
4 = Region Name
003 = Office / City (001 thru 024)
There are 7 possible regions with 24 possible Offices/Cities. I want to believe I can make this lookup happen using VLOOKUP tables that break them down - but I just don't have the brainpower to identify those 4 digits and then break them out for a look up.

Find Method On One Row Only

View 2 Replies View RelatedFIND Returns Previous Data
Mar 17, 2009This code (partial) was written to interrogate a database. Cell "A2" of another tab contains a Part Number to be sought.
Target = Range("A2")
Sheets("Kanban Data").Select
Dim Nrow As Range
Dim N As Integer
On Error Resume Next
With Sheets("Kanban Data")
Set Nrow = .Columns(2).Find(What:=Target, After:=.Cells(3, 2), LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False)
If the Find expression (as pulled down from the Edit menu) is empty, then inserting a Part Number in A2 and executing the macro finds the correct record and returns the its correct row number (N, as defined afterwards in the code). Then, changing the Part Number in cell A2 and executing a new search returns the SAME row as the previous search, despite Target being equal to the new sought after value.
