Hi All

I am having an issue where i have a line for a macro which works for PC but not on mac.

The lines provided i'm pretty sure are causing the issue:

Code: 
Set LookUpDate = ActiveCell
On Error GoTo DateNotFound1
Rows(ActiveCell.Row).Cells.Find(What:=LookUpDate, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:= xlValues, LookAt:= xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False).Activate

Even tho the date is 11/06/2018 and is there, it will go straight to the error handling.

However when i replace LookUpDate in the find section, with "11/06/2018", it works. Can anyone advise me on this?

(Would copy and paste the vba from the MAC but cant access the internet from it at the moment so is typed out)
 

Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand

Hi Tetra

Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately it is still throwing me to error handling.

The Find Method is looking for a string argument for "what:=". Try:

what:= CStr(LookUpDate)

Hi Joe

Unfortunately that didn't work either.

I will run to another desk so that i can upload the full code just in case i'm missing something elsewhere.

I have also highlighted the area where it goes to error handling.

Your LookUpDate is a range object with a .Value default property. Not sure why you define it that way, but could be part of the issue. Try changing this line:

Set LookUpDate = ActiveCell

to this:

LookUpDate = ActiveCell.Text

and use: what:= LookUpDate

Hi Joe

Unfortunately this didnt help either.

As to why i done this, my only excuse would be i'm new to VBA so i googled and tested things until they worked.

What happens with
