I expect we have some sort of misunderstanding. Are the sheets concerned actually called "A" to "Z". If not we may have to change the macro to run on selected sheets. Also is the information you are looking for actually in column O? How is the information formatted? Is it as text or as a number? Do you realise that the macro leaves the found(old) information as it was and puts the new information into Column S on the same row. If you feel you want to send your workbook to me (david at grugeon dot com dot au) I will see what the problem is but it is entirely up to you if you want to do this as I understand it may have confidential information which you would not feel like giving to a stranger.

I have copied your code into my module and run it a few times, but nothing happens (apart from the loop bit doesn't go crazy like mine did!). I selected worksheets A to Z and did a FindAll afterwards to check the result, but none of the data has changed. Please revisit the code you very kindly provided, because I haven't got a clue whether or not there is anything vital missing!!! Thanks for your help and such quick response.

I'm searching for data the user has entered via an input box, then changing the data in cells over to the right with the data the user enters via another input box. This works perfectly on active sheet. What I need is for the exact same thing to happen across worksheets A to Z (there being further worksheets that don't get changed), so some sort of loop is needed. I've tried looping, but with disastrous results!! I'd really appreciate a solution - I cribbed the example from elsewhere and tailored it, but I'm stumped to get it to work across the other sheets. Thanks in advance for all your help! Here's my code: With ActiveSheet.Range("O:O") Dim mySearch As String Dim myReplaceValue mySearch = InputBox("Enter the Box Number requiring relocation: ") myReplaceValue = InputBox("What is the new location? ") Set c = .Find(mySearch, LookIn:=xlValues) If Not c Is Nothing Then firstaddress = c.Address Do c.Offset(, 4) = myReplaceValue Set c = .FindNext(c) Loop While Not c Is Nothing And c.Address <> firstaddress End If End With -- FORUM RULES (986+ members already BANNED for violation) 1) Use concise, accurate thread titles.
