Public Function subHousemateUtility(name As Range)
Application.Volatile
Dim c
Dim firstAddress
Dim subtotal
With Worksheets("Tally Sheet").Range("B3:B10")
Set c = .Find(name.Value, LookIn:=xlValues)
If Not c Is Nothing Then
firstAddress = c.Address
Do
subtotal = subtotal + c.Value
Set c = .FindNext(after:=c.Address)
Loop While Not c Is Nothing And c.Address <> firstAddress
End If
End With
subHousemateUtility = c.Address
End Function

thanks in advance

It would be nice to know what the error was!

I think you need c, not c.Address, as the After argument.
 
You had one more reply to your previous thread.

According to Dave Peterson, who tested it in xl2002, FindNext does not work
in a UDF used in a worksheet in xl2002.

also, there is an error in your code

Set c = .FindNext(after:=c.Address)
should be

Set c = .FindNext(after:=c)

As written, your function returns the address of the first cell found - so
not sense doing the loop part

What are you trying to have returned by your function - I suspect it can be
done with builtin functions.
