Range .find fails for a single instance

Using Range find method to set a range that works in all cases except for the number "1". Instead of the correct row (which exists), it returns "-1" When I changed that particular cell to a random number it worked???!!!



BTW, the process finds a master row in another sheet, restores info (this part fails) and then deletes target record. I do this in reverse so I don't need to adjust search for deleted records.



Code below, any ideas?



        For inx1 = lastrow To 2 Step -1
If WSPY.Cells(inx1, 1) >= HldBillNo _
And WSPY.Cells(inx1, 1) <= (WSI.Range("AZ9") - 1) Then 'meets the billNo range
Set hldcell = WSO.Range("A1:A" & lastrow2).Find(WSPY.Cells(inx1, 3), SearchDirection:=xlNext)
WSO.Cells(hldcell.Row, 17) = WSPY.Cells(inx1, 13)
WSO.Cells(hldcell.Row, 18) = WSPY.Cells(inx1, 14)
WSPY.Rows(inx1).Delete 'delete row
End If
Next inx1
