Hi,
I have a named range of cells to search. It's called StdEng, and is about 60K cells
I'm none too clear about the syntax of the For Each loop, or Find.
What I need to do is search through looking for a match for 'SearchItem'
1. It needs to search by columns (because a match is most likely to be in the first column).
2. The match must be whole word match only (case insensitive).
3. If a match is found, I need to know what cell it was found in, to pull out info from other cells in the same row.
If there is a match, there will only be one, so it can stop searching if one is found.
Also, it's likely that around half the cells could be empty, in case that makes a difference.
Any help much appreciated.
Once I see a version that works, then maybe I'll finally get my head around it!
