Finding a string and then copy/pasting it 3 rows up and one column to the right

[jconkl02]

I have a log file from equipment at my job that I am trying to organize to make it a more useful to me. I want to look through over 5000 rows in column A and when it finds a cell with the words "BHS ASSOCIATION FULLY AVAILABLE", it cuts it out and then paste it 3 rows up and one column over in B. Basically in column B directly across from the row in column A that has "REPT:CELL" in it.

Here is an example of the output from my log file that I pasted into column A.

Hello this does as you ask.

Note that I've started searching from row 4 in column A as anything before that can't be moved up 3 rows...

Sub FindAndMove()
    Dim c As Range
    Dim sFind As String
    
    sFind = "*BHS ASSOCIATION FULLY AVAILABLE*"
    
    For Each c In Range("A4:A" & Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row)
        If c Like sFind Then
            c.Cut Cells(c.Row - 3, c.Column + 1)
        End If
    Next c
End Sub

Here is another option for you to try in a copy of your workbook.

Sub MoveUpAndOver()
  With Range("A1", Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
    .Offset(, 1).Value = Evaluate(Replace("if(isnumber(search(""BHS ASSOCIATION FULLY AVAILABLE"",#)),#,"""")", "#", .Offset(3).Address))
  End With
End Sub
