hi Phire
I'm pleased Windknife has been able to give you a solution (& shown you how the Search function can be used).
To clarify/correct your above comments for others who may read this post looking for solutions to their own problems, here's a quote from the Help files for Excel 2000:
RobFIND finds one text string (find_text) within another text string (within_text), and returns the number of the starting position of find_text, from the first character of within_text. You can also use SEARCH to find one text string within another, but unlike SEARCH, FIND is case sensitive and doesn't allow wildcard characters.
