I have a rather large spreadsheet that has twenty col across and 430 rows down, 365 of these rows have information and a date starting with 1/1/2019 in D36 thru 12/31/2019 in D401. Top 5 rows are froze so they can view averages in Row 5 and other information. Also a place to put the buttons for navigation, go to top, go to bottom, and go to chart macros. Each work day information is added to the corresponding date row. Which in turn drives a chart located at the top of the sheet for the BRASS to look at each morning. Not much of a problem now simple page up/page down and your there. But come around Mach and April on, the BRASS that look at this information will have to press a button for a macro to go to the top of the page so they can see the averages and another button the view the chart these macros are already working. (God forbid they have to scroll or page up to do that). But if they want to look at the data that is driving the chart---back down the page they go.....this is where they have problems. I want to add a button which will take them to todays date. If by chance they press "SAVE" while at the chart located at the top of the sheet then the next morning someone at 03:30am (probably me) half asleep, groggy eyed, grumpy, and sucking on coffee will have to go to the last date and enter the required information for today. Just FYI we are closed sometimes on the weekend so there is no data entered and this creates a break between the dates. Or I would use the End button in a macro on a column that I enter data into-- no work--no data which stops me from using End in a macro. It would stop at every Friday that we did not work that weekend. So far we have worked all but three weekends this year. So I have three breaks in the dates that stop the END function dead.

Assume Friday was 3/1/2019 the last date info was entered which is located in Cell D95, Closed Sat 3/2 and Sun 3/3 no data entered. Monday morning I press the magical button while at the top of the sheet and it goes to D98 which is 3/4/2019 Monday which is based on the date in B2 where I have TODAY() located at. Is there a Formula or VBA code that will use the TODAY() in B2 and then GO TO Cell D98? Actually I would like for it to go to "A98" the first cell to receive data. I'm at a loss but my Boss "WOULD LIKE TO SEE" this happen so he looks good to his boss's each morning while they play arm chair quarterback with the previous days data. VBA is not my forte But my Boss WOULD LIKE TO SEE this happen and he signs my paychecks. So I would like to see this happen as well and would love to figure out how the heck to do it myself. Any help would be appreciated ALOT!

Thanks in advance

After winding my bottom and scratching my watch I FINALLY got it working. Took me way to long to do ( You can't fix stupid) But I learned a few things so that makes me the winner. !
I want to say thanks to EVERYONE that helped me with this.
