This code searches for a column with "CPN" moves down two cells, copies the data, searches the selected data in another sheet, offsets to a defined sell, copies that data and returns to the original sheet.

My issue is, the row I am pasting the data into will sometimes change.. is there a way to have the user select the row that we are pasting into?

At the bottom of the code, you can see where I have offset 6 columns to the right to paste. I want the user to be able to select "Z" or something like that for example.

VBA Code:
'Find CPN
Cells.Find(What:="CPN").Offset(2, 0).Select

'Copy/search

    Dim str1 As String
    Dim Cntr As Integer
    Cntr = 0
    Do While Cntr <= 650

      Cntr = Cntr + 1
      str1 = ActiveCell.Value
      Selection.Copy

      Worksheets("Export").Activate
      ActiveCell.Select
      Cells.Find(What:=str1, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:= _
        xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:= _
        xlNext, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
      Cells.FindNext(After:=ActiveCell).Activate
      ActiveCell.Offset(0, 15).Range("A1").Select
      Selection.Copy

      Worksheets("Quote").Activate
      
      ' Now find Part number and paste into price column
      ActiveCell.Offset(0, 6).Select
      Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
    Loop
 

Excel Facts

Difference between two dates
Secret function! Use =DATEDIF(A2,B2,"Y")&" years"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"YM")&" months"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"MD")&" days"
You want user to select "Z" ?
How about this ?
VBA Code:
    Dim myRange As Range
    Set myRange = Application.InputBox("Select a cell to paste.", , , , , , , 8)
    MsgBox myRange.Address
