Title says it all, I have a hard time finding out how in a selection of many cells I can search of there exists at least once a cell with the name "x"

Thanks!

Workdays for a market open Mon, Wed, Friday?
Yes! Use "0101011" for the weekend argument in NETWORKDAYS.INTL or WORKDAY.INTL. The 7 digits start on Monday. 1 means it is a weekend.
Klash Ville,

If you mean contains "X" then in it's simplest form, provided that the selection is contiguous, try....

Code:
Sub Testx()
 
If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Selection, "x") > 0 Then MsgBox "You have at least one x"


End Sub

Hope that helps.
