Do Until Question

I have a Do until statement wrapped in an If statement and this is the Do until code I am using:
Code:
DEPI = Sheets("MTN").Range("A1").End(xlDown).row    Set findrange = Sheets("MTN").Range("A1:A" & DEPI)
    Set foundcell = findrange.Find(What:=Sheets("MTN").Range("C1").Value, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole)
     
    Do Until foundcell Is Nothing
        Sheets("MTN").Range("C1").Value = Sheets("MTN").Range("C1").Value + 1
        
        Loop

I have a range of Numbers in Column A and a number in C1. I want to increase the value in a cell C1 by 1 until the value in C1 is not found with in my specified range. When I run the Macro, it just keeps looping, somehow I have created a continuous loop.
If anyone can help me figure out how to accomplish my goal, I would be extremely grateful
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).

Because foundcell does not change inside the Do Until loop.

Ostensibly, you want:

Code:
Do
    Set foundcell = findrange.Find(What:=Sheets("MTN").Range("C1").Value, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole)
    If Not foundcell Is Nothing Then Sheets("MTN").Range("C1").Value = Sheets("MTN").Range("C1").Value + 1
Loop Until foundcell is Nothing

Another way....

Code:
Dim n As Long
....
n = Sheets("MTN").Range("C1").Value
Do
    Set foundcell = findrange.Find(What:=n, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole)
    If foundcell Is Nothing Then Exit Do
    n = n + 1
Loop
Sheets("MTN").Range("C1").Value = n

Change n to Double if MTN!C1 might not be an integer.
