Re: [ExcelVBA] Why am I getting #VALUE back from this function?

A first total guess would be lose the space from ' Scrape'.

Subject: [ExcelVBA] Why am I getting #VALUE back from this function?

I am trying to create a very simple function that will take a string of text and read a range of texts to see if I have any that string in any of the ranges of the texts. Should be a 10-minute problem to solve. I am however getting a #VALUE back.

I call the function with this:

  =Contains(F2,' Scrape'!$D$2:$D$2062)

The function is this:

    Function Contains(ChkFor As String, ChkRng As Range) As String
    
  
    For Each cell In ChkRng
        If (InStr(cell.Value, ChkFor, 1)) Then
            Contains = "Found"          Exit For
        End If
        Contains = "Not Found"
    Next cell
    End Function

OK, I said it was simple :) However, can anyone point to the problem in this code. I have looked at it until I have become frustrated.

Thanks,

Greg
