I'm looking for help on creating a vba code to look up a value based on a cell on another sheet then clear certain cells from that row. Below is an example.

I would like to type a value in cell (A2) in the 'Find" worksheet. Then run VBA code that would search column A of the "Yards" worksheet for that value and then clear the contents of cells A through E only of that row. Each value in column A would be unique.

Many thanks.

Use Data, What-If Analysis, Goal Seek to find the correct input cell value to reach a desired result
Copy and paste this macro into the worksheet code module. Do the following: right click the tab name for your "Find" sheet and click 'View Code'. Paste the macro into the empty code window that opens up. Close the code window to return to your sheet. Enter a value in cell A2 and press the ENTER key.

VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
    If Target.CountLarge > 1 Then Exit Sub
    If Target.Address(0, 0) <> "A2" Then Exit Sub
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim fnd As Range
    Set fnd = Sheets("Yard").Range("A:A").Find(Target.Value, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
    If Not fnd Is Nothing Then
        Sheets("Yard").Range("A" & fnd.Row).Resize(, 5).ClearContents
    End If
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
