"Column A includes a list of names.
Write a macro that will ask the user to enter a name (the default name is alex), and the macro will return the cell address of the required name. If the name does not exist – A proper message will be shown.
You should consider the list is dynamic and the macro is able to check every list length."
If you can help me with this please let me know

Excel Facts

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
Try this:

Code:
Sub FindName()
Dim name As String, lr As Long, c As Range
lr = Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
name = InputBox("Enter a name")
Set c = Range("A1:A" & lr).Find(name)
If c Is Nothing Then
 MsgBox "The name " + name + " wasn't found."
 Exit Sub
End If
MsgBox "The name " + name + " is in cell " + c.Address()
End Sub
