Date find Macro

[Johnnyboy5]

I need a marco that when I click on the macro button it will jump to a
date in column A which is 7 days foward from the current date. This
is rather than scrolling all the way down the column to find the
current week. Someone did me one for the same task but then I was
using a row not a column.

thanks

Here is that macro (for row)

Sub Auto_open()
'Sub Autpen()
MsgBox "This action will put the date to 7 days before today's date"

Dim rngRow1 As Range
Dim rngToFind As Range
Dim dateToday As Date

'Edit Sheet1 to match your worksheet
Sheets("Planner").Select

With ActiveSheet
Set rngRow1 = .Rows(1)
End With

dateToday = Date - 7

With rngRow1
Set rngToFind = .Find(What:=dateToday, _
LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, _
SearchFormat:=False)
End With

If Not rngToFind Is Nothing Then
rngToFind.Select
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = rngToFind.Row
ActiveWindow.ScrollColumn = rngToFind.Column
Else
MsgBox "Date " & dateToday & " not found. It might be the weekend.
Get a life !"
End If

End Sub

The macro you show finds seven days prior to today, and you are now asking
for 7 days after and to switch to column A instead of Row 1.

The changes are relatively simple

Change MsgBox "This action will put the date to 7 days before today's date"
to MsgBox "This action will put the date to 7 after before today's
date"

Change Set rngRow1 = .Rows(1)
to Set rngRow1 = .Columns(1)

Change dateToday = Date - 7
to dateToday = Date +7

If you really want to be picky change all of the rngRow1 to rngCol1 so as
not to create confusion due to the name of the range, but this is not
necessary for the program to work, it just makes it easier to look at.

Sub gotodateplus7()
Columns("E").Find(What:=Date + 7, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
End Sub

Change  Set rngRow1 = .Rows(1)
to          Set rngRow1 = .Columns(1)

Change  dateToday = Date - 7
to          dateToday = Date +7

Thanks to Paul C will change it tonight - well spotted I meant it to
be 7 before the current date.
