Question

I am trying to get the code to check if a whole column contains specific text.
It will always be capitals. There is a lot of code after this line but I only want the code to run if the following condition is met. The code I am thinking along the lines of is as follows.

If ActiveSheet.Range("J:J").Text = "GENERAL" Then

However this returns nothing, I have tried Instr() but to no avail.

What is the right syntax?

You can search within a range;

if not ActiveSheet.Range("J:J").Find("GENERAL", MatchCase:=True) is nothing then
    msgbox "found it!"
end if
