I recall seeing someone (I don't recall who/where) use a shortcut or option within a lengthy code in VBE to trace the origin of a variable... i.e., find in the previous code where the variable had been declared and defined or set. Can you help me remember or rediscover this?

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.
Do you mean right click the variable and choose Definition?

Do you mean Ctrl+F to 'Find' the variable name in your procedure/module etc?

Ha! It was the right click/definition option that I'd forgotten. I knew it would be so simple that I'd be embarrassed for having forgotten. Thank you so much!
