Re: $$Excel-Macros$$ Re: Match text to a list
Kris,
Sorry, you are quite right. I made the mistake of copying the previous
code and replacing the prvious code with the previous codes.
thank you so much for your patience.

Re: $$Excel-Macros$$ Re: Match text to a list
That's not true.
MATCH("A",L6:L27,0) is not equal to MATCH("AA",L6:L27,0).
Can you attach the workbook ?

Re: $$Excel-Macros$$ Re: Match text to a list
This works just as well as the other code but still has the problem, If
range (L6:L27) has the letters AA in it then it shows A as a match and says
report A is already done

Re: $$Excel-Macros$$ Re: Match text to a list
The code you supply works perfectly except for one issue. I am checking a column to see if I have run a report before and therefore the check for the match. The problem is I have one report marked AA and another marked A. If I have run the report AA before then when I run the report A, the code is indicating that the report has already been run. It seems to be seeing the AA as a match On Sat, Mar 10, 2012 at 7:25 PM, dguillett1 wrote: > isnumber is based on the SEARCH returning same > > Don Guillett > Microsoft MVP Excel > SalesAid Software > dguille...@gmail.com > > *From:* Brian > *Sent:* Saturday, March 10, 2012 10:53 AM > *To:* excel-macros@googlegroups.com > *Subject:* $$Excel-Macros$$ Re: Match text to a list > > Thank you Kris, your solution works perfectly.
