Greetings.
I have a problem getting the .find to work on a table column.
In the table, is a column labeled 'ID'.
Towards the end of my program is the line:
foundrow = summObj.listcolumns...

I have tried for hours to google for help and have tried many different syntaxes and I cannot get it to work.

Here is my program:

Code:
Private Sub Reload_Click()
    
    'Routine to move data to table from Molding Table
    'Check to not overwrite current records but add new ones.
    
    Dim summObj As ListObject
    Dim moldObj As ListObject
    Dim I, X As Integer
    Dim summObjRows As Integer
    Dim moldObjRows As Integer
    Dim key As String
    Dim foundrow As Integer
    
    ' Get the table reference
    Set summObj = Worksheets("Summary").ListObjects("SummaryTable")
    Set moldObj = Worksheets("MoldingData").ListObjects("MoldingTable")
    summObjRows = summObj.ListRows.Count
    moldObjRows = moldObj.ListRows.Count
    
    'Check if table is empty
    If summObjRows = 0 Then
        'Set up the first row
        summObj.ListRows.Add
        summObj.ListColumns("ID").DataBodyRange(1) = "New"
    End If
    
    X = 1
    For I = 1 To moldObj.ListRows.Count
        key = moldObj.DataBodyRange(I, moldObj.ListColumns("ID").DataBodyRange.Column) & "," & moldObj.DataBodyRange(I, moldObj.ListColumns("6-Way").DataBodyRange.Column)
        If moldObj.DataBodyRange(I, moldObj.ListColumns("Volume").DataBodyRange.Column) <> "" Then
        
            If Not (key = summObj.ListColumns("ID").DataBodyRange(X)) Then
                'Insert row into Summary Table unless this is the first row in a blank table.
                If Not summObj.ListColumns("ID").DataBodyRange(X) = "New" Then
                    summObj.ListRows.Add (X)
                End If
                summObj.ListColumns("ID").DataBodyRange(X) = key
                summObj.ListColumns("Volume").DataBodyRange(X) = moldObj.ListColumns("Volume").DataBodyRange(I)
                summObj.ListColumns("Item Name").DataBodyRange(X) = moldObj.ListColumns("Item Name").DataBodyRange(I)
                summObj.ListColumns("Data1").DataBodyRange(X) = moldObj.ListColumns("Data1").DataBodyRange(I)
                summObj.ListColumns("Data2").DataBodyRange(X) = moldObj.ListColumns("Data2").DataBodyRange(I)
            Else
                summObj.ListColumns("Volume").DataBodyRange(X) = moldObj.ListColumns("Volume").DataBodyRange(I)
                summObj.ListColumns("Data2").DataBodyRange(X) = moldObj.ListColumns("Data2").DataBodyRange(I)
            End If
            X = X + 1
        Else
            'Check it to see if it is in Summary, and if so remove it
            foundrow = summObj.ListColumns("ID").DataBodyRange(X).Find(key).Row
        End If
    Next I
    
End Sub

Any help is appreciated.

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
Some Progress...
In my foundrow = summObj.listcolumns... line, I removed the (X).
Now when the string being searched for is in the column, it returns the row number to foundrow.
If the string is not in the column, it raises the Runtime Error '91' error.

Any thoughts?
