Use lookup to enter value in the adjacent cell

[Av8tordude]

I have a user form label that displays an ID tag. This ID Tag is also in a list in column AA. I would like to look up the Userform ID Tag in the list in Column AA and enter a number value adjacent to the ID Tag in column AB in VBA. Can someone assist a VBA code that will accomplish this task?

Thank you kindly for assistance.

You left out a lot of details.
Like the name of the Userform Label.
What value you want entered in Column AB

This script assumes your label is named label1

And you want the value 3 entered into column AB

All this would be on the active sheet.

Try this:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
'Modified  7/13/2019  2:56:42 AM  EDT
Dim SearchString As String
Dim SearchRange As Range
SearchString = Label1.Caption
Dim Lastrow As Long
Lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, "AA").End(xlUp).Row
Set SearchRange = Range("AA1:AA" & Lastrow).Find(SearchString, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
If SearchRange Is Nothing Then MsgBox SearchString & "  Not Found": Exit Sub
SearchRange.Offset(0, 1).Value = 3
End Sub

Thank you greatly M.A.I.T. It script works as expected. My apologies for too few details. Sometimes I try to stick to the point but inadvertently leave out some details that can be of some use.

Cheers

Come back here to Mr. Excel next time you need additional assistance.

Using this same code, How can I adjust the code to find the record and delete that specific range? i.e. the record was found on AA19:AD19 and i want to clear this range?

Show me the script your now using with your modifications.

And how can you find the value in:

the record was found on AA19:AD19

The script only looks in column AA

And then you said:

and ​

​

delete​

​

that specific range? i.e. the record was found on AA19:AD19 and i want to ​

​

clear ​

​

this range?

Delete and clear are not the same.

Delete means cells are deleted.
Clear means clear the value in the range.

I manage to figure it out.. thank you

Intersect(SearchRange.EntireRow, Range("R:U")).ClearContents

This may work:

SearchRange.Resize(,4).ClearContents
