Hi all,

I have just started learning Vba.

I am trying to create search for a value using an input box which goes through a range and determines the first value that exceeds the value chosen via input box. I have absolutely no idea where to begin. (Also I hope I make sense)

Any help to steer me in the correct direction would be greatly appreciated

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
try something like this

Code:
Sub test()
Dim cfind As Range, x, c As Range
Worksheets("sheet1").Activate
x = InputBox("type the number you want as input e.g. 2")
x = CLng(x)
Set cfind = Columns("a:a").Cells.Find(what:=x, lookat:=xlWhole)
'MsgBox cfind.Address
For Each c In Range(cfind.Offset(1, 0), cfind.End(xlDown))
MsgBox c.Address
If c.Value > x Then
MsgBox c.Address
Exit Sub
End If
Next c








End Sub

End Sub
Thank you very much!
