    Auto Numbering script Problem

    I am working on a script that checks for data in column B. It places an incremental number in column A until it notices that there is no more data. I thought I had this working Wednesday but today, for some reason isn't doing anything when I try to execute the macro. BOM is the name of the sheet. This is semi-related to another post that I made :

    They are both part of a template that I'm using to automate my Bill of Materials sheet. If it would help, I could attach the whole template.

    Re: Auto Numbering script Problem

    Hello AHawkins_Bjorksten,

    A potential problem with using the Find method is not setting the named arguments that are remembered by the system. Here is a list of those named arguments: LookIn, LookAt, SearchOrder, and MatchByte.

    I have added the named arguments to your code. I have also provided another method. Since you know the starting row and column where the data will be, you can locate the last entry in just that column. This is a method I use often because of the programming felxibity.
