I need to see if there is a way to this:

Cell A1 I can enter a 4 digit number.

Click a button to run a macro that will go to another sheet in my workbook, Look in Col G ( there are hundreds of numbers) and locate that certain number on the ROW and on that same ROW place and "X" in col M so it can be checked off so to speak.

I don't thing V lookup is the key but it seems that I think this can be done.

Thanks in advance

I loaded the first one that used the imputbox and worked perfect. This one did not. I dont see in the coding where it picks up my 4 dig number in cell B17 on sheet INPUT?

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
G is just my store number listings 4 digit numbers.
I asked 4 questions and the above does not address all of them in any way. No matter as you seem to have an answer you are satisfied with, so there is no need for me to try and provide you with an alternate.

The 4 digit number is located in cell B15 on sheet INPUT. I have named that cell STORE.
B17 or B15?

Try:
Code:
Sub M1()
    
    Dim arr()   As Variant
    Dim LR          As Long
    Dim x           As Long
    
    With Sheets("INPUT")
        LR = Application.Max(18, .Cells(.Rows.count, 2).End(xlUp).row)
        arr = .Cells(2, 17).Resize(LR - 16).Value
    End With
    
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    
    With Sheets("Cradlepoints")
        LR = .Cells(.Rows.count, 7).End(xlUp).row
        For x = LBound(arr, 1) To UBound(arr, 1)
            With .Cells(1, 7).Resize(LR)
                On Error Resume Next
                .find(what:=v, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole).Offset(, 6).Value = "x"
                On Error GoTo 0
            End With
        Next x
    End With
    
    Erase arr
    
End Sub

Try this:
Code:
Sub My_Search()
On Error GoTo M
Dim SearchString As String
Dim SearchRange As Range
Dim Lastrow As Long
Dim ans As String
ans = Sheets("INPUT").Range("B15").Value
Lastrow = Sheets("Cradlepoints").Cells(Rows.Count, "G").End(xlUp).Row
SearchString = ans
Set SearchRange = Sheets("Cradlepoints").Range("G1:G" & Lastrow).Find(SearchString, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
SearchRange.Offset(0, 6).Value = "X"
Exit Sub
M:
MsgBox "The value  " & ans & "  was not found"
End Sub

Ahh... my brain worked. It was simple to replace the ImputBox with a location. Dhhhh.

Thanks JackDanIce

My script looks in Sheets("INPUT").Range("B15") for the search value.

But you said:
In Post 1 you said: Cell A1 I can enter a 4 digit number.
In Post 7 you said: The 4 digit number is located in cell B15 on sheet INPUT
In Post 11 you said: I dont see in the coding where it picks up my 4 dig number in cell B17
