Need some help with Macro and search

I am told the guru's are here on this forum and I hope so because I am stumped and need some help.


I have a macro and need to expand some columns that I want to search. Presently I enter what I call counter numbers in 4 cells (the counters are 4 digits) The game number goes in column A, then counter digit 1 in B, digit 2 in C, digit 3 in D and digit 4 in E. I place the counter numbers I am searching for under the C1,C2,C3,C4 (HIJK) and then press find Pattern Matches. I can enter up to 12-15 rows if I like. Sometimes I only want to look for 4 rows, other times 10 so I have the ability to change what I want to look for by changing the number in N. When I press "find pattern matches" presently It will find all the location that the counter numbers are which is 4 column's. I want to be able to include some additional columns so I not only have the counter numbers but the additional columns too.

okay hope I haven't lost anyone yet LOL.I would also like to group together columns AB,AC,AD,AE,AF,AG,AH,AI,AJ like on sheet G-G+. Once it finds the counters it places the information on sheet 2. I have several different sheets to look through and each sheet has over 40,000 rows on counter numbers I will be needing to search through

Let me know if you have any questions and I REALLY appreciate your help

I as just thinking. It probably does not matter which columns any of the information goes in on the other sheet or the first sheet as long as it sorts it all together. In other words, if I m searching for rows that are for example counter numbers 2233,2234,2235,2236 I get all the information associated with those counters i.e. U,D,G+,G- etc.... . Does this make sense I will copy and paste my data from the master files to this Macro to build the Master file to do the searches

Here is the new link
