Greetings All,

I'm needing help with VBA which would find the word "FMLA" which will be in Column D, and replace the text in Column A with an "X".

The code I'm using for other searches on the spreadsheet is
Code:
   Cells.Replace What:="Total", Replacement:="X Total", LookAt:=xlPart, _
        SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _
        ReplaceFormat:=False
 

Excel Facts

Control Word Wrap
Press Alt+Enter to move to a new row in a cell. Lets you control where the words wrap.
Code:
Option Explicit

Sub PutX()

On Error GoTo errhandler

ActiveSheet.Columns("D").Find("FMLA").Offset(, -3) = "X"

Exit Sub

errhandler:

    MsgBox "Not found"
    Err.Clear
    
End Sub

Code:
Sub Find()


For Each cell In Range("D1:D100")
If cell.Value = "FMLA" Then
cell.Offset(0, -3).Formula = "X"
End If
Next cell


End Sub
