the line: If FindCell(Counter) <> "D" Then tests to see if the array element was NOT EQUAL to "D" (and "D" alone!) what you WANT to do is test to see if the letter "D" is IN the string.
the function you're looking for is "Instr" like: If (InStr(1, FindCell(Counter), "D") = 0) then this will look for a Capital "D" anywhere in the array element. hope this helps.

But now I would like to refine it.. So the question is... how Can I verify if a value into a array position contain or not the character??? I imagine that this is a string compare... but I do not know how to do it... Can someone help me??
