Hello -
I retrieved this code from another message board (not sure who the author is, or I would give that person credit) and I need assistance with it.
When a search only finds one occurrence and the user clicks "continue" to keep searching, the code takes the user to the end of the sheets and returns a "not found" message. This makes the user start the search all over again to get to the one occurrence and be smart enough to say "no" when asked if they want to continue or not. Ideally, if there are no other occurrences found, it would keep the single occurrence selected and allow the user to stay at that location, rather than taking the user to the end of the worksheets, thereby losing their search result.
Can anyone assist me with this?
