Loop or Find

by - Liz [guest] (2006 Nov 22 Wed, 16:23) replyReply

Is it better to "loop" through a column of data to match a name entered in an input box or would it be better to use "find". Are there any pitfalls with find?

Thanks

Use Loop or Find to Search Column

Using a Loop to look through a column is better and much more accurate.

Find searches the whole table for the value.

The pitfall of Find is that if you are searching for multiple values, you would still have to use some sort of loop as the system only finds one item at a time.

Add A New Sheet at the end of the Workbook

To add a new sheet at the end of the workbook you need to count the sheets in the workbook using:

Sheets.Add After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
