$$Excel-Macros$$ Match text to a list
I am using Excel 2007 In cell D18 I have some text. I need the VBA to check if this text appears in the list in Cells L6:L27 If it does it then exits the sub otherwise it must do something else. Can anyone help with this code. -- FORUM RULES (986+ members already BANNED for violation) 1) Use concise, accurate thread titles.
