Hi Ive been struggling with a search loop today

here is what I got:

Code: 
    j = 4
    x = 4
    lr = Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row


search:
    If j > lr Then
       Exit Sub
    End If
    
    Ateam = Cells(j, "Q")
    For i = 4 To lr
       If Cells(i, "C").Value = Ateam Then
          Cells(j, "V").Value = Cells(i, "F")
          j = j + 1
          GoTo search
       End If
    Next i

Basically column Q have names stored and the same names are stored in column C
Im trying to search trough the names i column Q and find values that are stored in column F.

This code I have created works as long as there is no errors Ive tried to add some error handling to make it jump over search crteria that is not fund but so far no luck :/

Any help to fix or make this code faster would be greatly appreciated :)

Shouldn't this simply be

Code: 
   j = 4
    x = 4
    lr = Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row

search:
    Ateam = Cells(j, "Q")
    For i = 4 To lr
       If Cells(i, "C").Value = Ateam Then
          Cells(j, "V").Value = Cells(i, "F")
          j = j + 1
       End If
    Next i

Frederick,

I'm trying to follow exactly what you're trying to accomplish. Are you trying to iterate through each value in column Q, find that value in column C, return the corresponding value in column F, and store it in column V (same row as the "Q" search term)?

What you have here is a loop in loop so I don't understand why you use GOTO. To say the true, it's better when we don't use any goto statement.

This would be a better alternative
Code: 
    x = 4
    lr = Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row


If lr < 4 Then
    Exit Sub
End If


For j = 4 To lr
    Ateam = Cells(j, "Q")
    For i = 4 To lr
       If Cells(i, "C").Value = Ateam Then
          Cells(j, "V").Value = Cells(i, "F")
          Exit For
       End If
    Next i
Next

If, in fact, this is what you're trying to accomplish, give this a shot.

Code: 
Public Sub SearchLoop()
Dim LR      As Long, _
    i       As Long

Dim rng     As Range
    
Dim ateam   As String

    
LR = Cells(Rows.Count, "Q").End(xlUp).Row

For i = 2 To LR
    ateam = Range("Q" & i).Value
    With Range("C:C")
        Set rng = .Find(ateam, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole)
        If Not rng Is Nothing Then
            Range("V" & i).Value = rng.Offset(0, 3).Value
        End If
        Set rng = Nothing
    End With
Next i

End Sub

Here is a way to simplify your loop...
Code: 
[table="width: 500"]
[tr]
	[td]Public Sub SearchLoop()
  Dim Rw As Long, LR As Long
  LR = Cells(Rows.Count, "Q").End(xlUp).Row
  For Rw = 2 To LR
    Cells(Rw, "V").Value = Evaluate("VLOOKUP(Q" & Rw & ",C:F,4,FALSE)")
  Next i
End Sub[/td]
[/tr]
[/table]

Thanks for all your replies ., Of course my script crashed here :/
for some reason excel refuses to accept this line:

Code: 
Set Doc = IE.document

Need to figure out whats gone wrong before I can test all your great suggestions:)

here is my entire code:

Code: 
Option Explicit
Sub mars()


  Dim shellWins As ShellWindows
  Dim IE As New SHDocVw.InternetExplorer
  Dim Doc As New MSHTML.HTMLDocument
  Dim HTMLRows As MSHTML.IHTMLElementCollection
  Dim HTMLRows2 As MSHTML.IHTMLElementCollection
  Dim URL As String
  Dim j As Long, i As Long, x As Long, lr As Long
  Dim mars As String
  Set shellWins = New ShellWindows
  Dim hteam As String
  Dim Ateam As String


  If shellWins.Count > 0 Then
    ' Get IE
    Set IE = shellWins.Item(0)
    GoTo fetchodds
  Else
    ' Create IE
    IE.Visible = True
    URL = "http://www.marsbet.se/#/sport/?type=0&competition=566&sport=1&region=20001&game=7401507"
    Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:12"))
    IE.Navigate URL
  End If




fetchodds:
    Range("C" & 54 & ":C" & 4650).Value = ""
    Set Doc = IE.document
    Set HTMLRows = Doc.getElementsByClassName("events-list-view-v3")
    Set HTMLRows2 = Doc.getElementsByClassName("mini-title-box-gameview-v3")
    
    Columns("C").NumberFormat = "@"
     j = 4
     x = 17
     For i = 0 To HTMLRows2.Length - 1
        hteam = Trim(Split(HTMLRows(i).innerText, vbCrLf)(7))
        Ateam = Trim(Split(HTMLRows(i).innerText, vbCrLf)(25))
        Ateam = Replace(Ateam, "FC BATE Borisov", "BATE Borisov")
        hteam = Replace(hteam, "FC BATE Borisov", "BATE Borisov")
        Ateam = Replace(Ateam, "SK Slavia Praha", "Slavia Praha")
        hteam = Replace(hteam, "SK Slavia Praha", "Slavia Praha")
        Ateam = Replace(Ateam, "FC Viitorul Constanta", "Viitorul Constanta")
        hteam = Replace(hteam, "FC Viitorul Constanta", "Viitorul Constanta")
        Ateam = Replace(Ateam, "Slavia Praha", "Slavia Prague")
        hteam = Replace(hteam, "Slavia Praha", "Slavia Prague")
        Ateam = Replace(Ateam, "FK Vardar", "Vardar Skopje")
        hteam = Replace(hteam, "FK Vardar", "Vardar Skopje")
        Ateam = Replace(Ateam, "FH Hafnarfjordur", "Hafnarfjordur")
        hteam = Replace(hteam, "FH Hafnarfjordur", "Hafnarfjordur")
        Ateam = Replace(Ateam, "Ajax Amsterdam", "Ajax")
        hteam = Replace(hteam, "Ajax Amsterdam", "Ajax")
        Ateam = Replace(Ateam, "PFC Ludogorets Razgrad", "Ludogorets")
        hteam = Replace(hteam, "PFC Ludogorets Razgrad", "Ludogorets")
        Ateam = Replace(Ateam, "HNK Rijeka", "Rijeka")
        hteam = Replace(hteam, "HNK Rijeka", "Rijeka")
        Ateam = Replace(Ateam, "Celtic FC", "Celtic")
        hteam = Replace(hteam, "Celtic FC", "Celtic")
        Ateam = Replace(Ateam, "Olympiacos Piraeus", "Olympiakos")
        hteam = Replace(hteam, "Olympiacos Piraeus", "Olympiakos")
        Ateam = Replace(Ateam, "Istanbul Basaksehir", "Basaksehir")
        hteam = Replace(hteam, "Istanbul Basaksehir", "Basaksehir")
        Ateam = Replace(Ateam, "BSC Young Boys", "Young Boys")
        hteam = Replace(hteam, "BSC Young Boys", "Young Boys")
        Ateam = Replace(Ateam, "FC Viktoria Plzen", "Plzen")
        hteam = Replace(hteam, "FC Viktoria Plzen", "Plzen")
        
        Cells(j, x).Value = hteam
        Cells(j, x + 2).Value = Trim(Split(HTMLRows(i).innerText, vbCrLf)(8))
        Cells(j, x + 3).Value = Trim(Split(HTMLRows(i).innerText, vbCrLf)(17))


        Cells(j, x + 1).Value = Ateam
        Cells(j, x + 4).Value = Trim(Split(HTMLRows(i).innerText, vbCrLf)(26))
        On Error Resume Next
        j = j + 1
    Next i
    
    j = 4
    x = 4
    lr = Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row


search:
    If j >= lr Then
       Exit Sub
    End If
    
    Ateam = Cells(j, "Q")
    For i = 4 To lr
       If Cells(i, "C").Value = Ateam Then
          Cells(j, "V").Value = Cells(i, "F")
          j = j + 1
          GoTo search
       End If
    Next i
    
  Set shellWins = Nothing
  Set IE = Nothing
    
    End Sub

But now it refuses to set the doc :(

finally fixed it :)

@ Rick Rothstein I was actually planning on using your suggested solution in the end I ended up using it like this :

Code: 
Sub testmrexcel()
Dim LR      As Long, _
    i       As Long


Dim rng     As Range
    
Dim ateam   As String


    
LR = Cells(Rows.Count, "Q").End(xlUp).Row


For i = 2 To LR
    ateam = Range("Q" & i).Value
    With Range("C:C")
        Set rng = .Find(ateam, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole)
        If Not rng Is Nothing Then
            Range("V" & i).Value = rng.Offset(0, 3).Value
        End If
        Set rng = Nothing
    End With
Next i


End Sub

Its lightning fast compared to what i tried :)

Thanks alot MrKowz
