Problem finding cell contents

[IanC]

I have the following code which is causing me a headache. The idea is to
find the current version of an Excel template file. The problem lies in the
section between the rows of hyphens. Things go wrong on the line followed by
asterisks, though I think the problem lies with the previous line.

The partucular file I'm working with does not contain SD so I need t to step
onto the next section looking for sUpdRoot & " v". The problem is that
"cell" obviously contains something and th code jumps to "cont:".

How can I modify the code so that if SD isn't found it will look for
sUpdRoot & " v"?

Many thanks.

I'm an idiot (please feel free to disagree). The answer was staring me in
the face. the string SD was being found in the worksheet, but not as I
expected it. It was in the word Tuesday. All I needed to do was change
MatchCase to True.
