Search for date in column

  Asked By: Hayrah    Date: Mar 02    Category: MS Office    Views: 638
  

I have the following piece of code which searchs for a specified date
in a worksheet and returns the row number of the date. How would I
alter this code so that only a specified column is searched for the
date in question?

Set rCell = Cells.Find(What:=CDate(strdate), After:=Range("B5"),
LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlWhole, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext,
MatchCase:=False)
rCell.Select
RowNo = ActiveCell.Row

To search  only column  B (for example), maybe something like:

Columns("B:B").Select
Set rCell = Selection.Find(What:=CDate(strdate), After:=Range("B5"), _
LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlWhole, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False)
rCell.Select
RowNo = ActiveCell.Row

When you record a macro, the default is always "Cells". You want to change
that to "Range" or "Selection".
