I am in Excel 2003

I have an alphabetized list of names in column A.
Through a button, the user will enter a name. I want to loop through the list, find the name and place the cursor in the adjacent cell.
 

Excel Facts

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.
Try with a button from the Controls toolbar

Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim Found As Range
Set Found = Columns("A").Find(what:=InputBox("Enter name"), LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
If Not Found Is Nothing Then Found.Offset(, 1).Select
End Sub

myStr = Application.InputBox("Enter Item Code")
Set rng = Range("a1:a20")
For Each c In rng
If c.Value = myStr Then
c.Offset(0, 1).Select
Exit Sub
End If
Next c
