object variable or with block not set

[jhahes]

This is what I currently have, however if my entry is not in the range
then it makes me debug saying object variable not set or with block not
set. Is there anyway that I can actually have a msgbox "Not found" pop
up if the entry entered is not in the list.


Range("A1:A500").Select
Dim EmailAddress As String
EmailAddress = InputBox("enter Email Address", "Email Address")
Selection.Find(What:=EmailAddress, After:=ActiveCell,
LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
Lookat:=xlPart, Searchorder:=xlByRows, searchdirection:=xlNext,
_
MatchCase:=False, searchformat:=False).Activate


Thanks for any help

Dim Found as Range
.....
set Found = Selection.Find(...)
if found is Nothing then msgbox "not found"

I tried the solution and got the same error both times now. When I
found the entry and when I didn't find the entry.

This works by me:

'------------------------------
Sub test()
Dim EmailAddress As String
Dim found As Range
Range("A1:A500").Select
EmailAddress = InputBox( _
"enter Email Address", _
"Email Address")
Set found = Selection.Find( _
What:=EmailAddress, _
After:=ActiveCell, _
LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
Lookat:=xlPart, _
Searchorder:=xlByRows, _
searchdirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False)
If found Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "Not found"
Else
found.Activate
End If
End Sub
