I have macro in VBA that uses a data set in excel. Then it filters all but one specific vendor. Everyone else is removed from that data set. Unfilter. Then I'm left with headers only and no data lines (line 2 and below) or I'm left with header data and data in lines 2 and usually more.

Then I have the following.
Dim MyRange as range
Dim FindThis as String
FindThis = "VENDOR's NAME"
Set MyRange = Range ("B2:B65536").Find(What:=FindThis)
If MyRange is Nothing Then
Else

Save the file as Vender.xlsx
Attaches to email etc

End if

If it comes to one of the vendors that is not in the data set, then it just spins and does nothing. So yesterday, i got 6 files and emails and then it stops.

How can you turn a range sideways?
Copy the range. Select a blank cell. Right-click, Paste Special, then choose Transpose.
I do not understand what the problem is.
You can put your complete code.
What to do if it exists?
What to do if it does not exist?
I tried the following and it works

Code:
    Dim MyRange As Range
    Dim FindThis As String
    
    FindThis = "VENDOR's NAME"
    If ActiveSheet.AutoFilterMode Then ActiveSheet.AutoFilterMode = False
    
    Set MyRange = Range("B2", Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Find(What:=FindThis, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
    If MyRange Is Nothing Then
        MsgBox "The vendor does not exist"
    Else
        MsgBox "Start"
        'Save the file as Vender.xlsx
        'Attaches to email etc
        
    End If

This worked! thank you.

Any suggestions on this.

Is there anyway not to save the file in VFB? I make some changes and when it does "nothing" I get a popup box with an error.
