I'm manipulating some data, by searching through a list and and printing out the row numbers of the cells that match the criteria I'm looking for. I'm using InStr to do this - can this be used to search for multiple items?
I've tried "Or", "And" etc but they don't seem to work, and there are a lot of criteria I'm looking for so would prefer not to have lots of If statements.
For Each cell In SrchRng
If InStr(1, cell.Value, "A" or "B") > 0 Then
'Print row number...
End If
Next cell
End Sub
Run-time error "13" Type mismatch
occurs with the above. The actual output would be the row number that "A" or "B" occurs in.
You can try addition to shorten your code a bit and also perhaps make it more readable:
If InStr(1, cell.Value, "A") + _
InStr(1, cell.Value, "B") > 0 Then
'do stuff
End If
