search and do something

G

I have created a macro that searches through a column of data and when it finds the desired text it inserts a cell moving the text to the right. All the text I wish to search for are refered to one after the other within the macro but is it possible to list all the text somewhere on the spread sheet and get the macro to refer to the list I hope this reads well.

Thanks :)

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Hi,
I am just wondering do you know how to create a macro to search more than one columns?

Hi There I wrote this one to search in col G but is guess you could change the line ("G:G")to read ("G:H")but Ive not tried it.

Dim MyText

On Error GoTo handleerror

MyText = InputBox("Enter the 1st five characters of your Text")

Sheets("statusreport").Select
Do Until ActiveCell = " "

Columns("G:G").Select
Selection.Find(What:=MyBranch, After:=ActiveCell, MatchCase:=False).Activate
ActiveCell.Select
Selection.EntireRow.Cut
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Range("B1").Select
Selection.End(xlDown).Select
ActiveCell.Select
ActiveCell.Offset(1, -1).Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
Range("a1").Select
Sheets("statusreport").Select
Loop
handleerror:
Range("A1").Select

End Sub
