    Help with vba, if record exists overwrite ?

    I have this small excel sheet im using to add projects to a hidden project tab.
    right now no matter what i put in it will add no problems.

    but what i would like for it to do is.. if the IPS number is found, to overwrite the row, if not found just add it.

    can anyone help with this ?

    Thank you Leith. I see now when I add a project it says it has already been entered which is great, but is there a way to now overwrite that row in the project_DB tab with the new data ?

    Hello vsantoro,

    The macro will now ask if you want to overwrite the record. Here is the code. It has been added to the attached workbook also.
