Hi,
Code in use is shown below.

This is how the code works.
Worksheet INV in cell G13 will be a customers name,example TOM JONES 001

The code then looks in worksheet DATABASE column A for a match.
Once a match is found the cell is selected & its interior is coloured Red.

The problem i have is trying to use the arrows or tab button on the keyboard does nothing at all.
I must use the mouse.

Do you see an issue as to why this is happening please.


Rich (BB code):
Private Sub GoToCustomer_Click()
    Dim FindString As String
    Dim rng As Range
    If Range("G13") = "" Then
    MsgBox "NO NAME SELECTED IN THE CUSTOMER DETAILS SECTION", vbCritical, "NO CUSTOMER SELECTED MESSAGE"
    End If
    
    FindString = Range("G13").Value
    If Trim(FindString) <> "" Then
        With Sheets("DATABASE").Range("A:A")
        Application.EnableEvents = False

            Set rng = .Find(What:=FindString, _
                            After:=.Cells(.Cells.Count), _
                            LookIn:=xlValues, _
                            LookAt:=xlWhole, _
                            SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
                            SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
                            MatchCase:=False)
                            If Not rng Is Nothing Then
                Application.Goto rng, True
                ActiveCell.Interior.Color = vbRed
                Application.EnableEvents = True
            Else
                MsgBox "CUSTOMER NOT FOUND"
            End If
        End With
    End If
End Sub

Who is Mr Spreadsheet?
Author John Walkenbach was Mr Spreadsheet until his retirement in June 2019.
Try deleting the lines
VBA Code:
Application.EnableEvents = False
and
VBA Code:
Application.EnableEvents = True
and replacing the string
VBA Code:
Application.Goto rng, True
with
VBA Code:
rng.Select
(didn't check).
