Search from highlighted cell

I have a macro where I can search from A1 but I would like to search from
anywhere in the sheet. Does anyone know how to do that?

Instead of using Range("A1") in your code, use ActiveSheet.UsedRange.
This property represents the currently selected range in your
worksheet.

Actually, Selection would refer to the current selected range.

Activesheet.usedrange refers to what the range that excel thinks has been used.

In the .find statement

..., After:=activecell, ...

or specify whatever cell you want to use.

ok here is my code snippet. I am trying to get the A1 turned to the
activesheet.used range. How do I set this up?

Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"http://total." & Sheet1.Range("a1") & "." & Sheet1.Range("A1") & ".htm"

I don't understand how this fits into a Search. I guessed you were doing the
same thing as Edit|Find in code.

Maybe you could restate your question.

Right now Ihae it wher in the code below, if information is added to A1 then
it will fil out the rest of this web link and then run a macro to copy and
paste. I want A1 to be any cell in the worksheet.

How do you know what cell to process? Is it the activecell?

Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"http://total." & activecell.value & "." & activecell.value & ".htm"

(Did you really want that value duplicated?)

have to work with it.
