Hi, If the FIND thingy doesn't work with filter-hidden rows, try just looping through each cell in the range you want:
Something like: For each c in Range("A2:A1000") If c.value = "<Your criteria here>" Then Msgbox "Bing! It's here!" Next c Replace the Message Box with whatever code you need. Hope this is of some help.
