how do I stop the find at the end of the sheet

I need to handle the first find and delete a bit
differently than the rest. After the first one, I want
to repeatedly search from a few rows down from the first
one until the end of the sheet, doing deletes. How do I
stop the loop from continuing back to the start of the
worksheet, finding text that I intentionally left behind.

--------
Range("A1").Activate

Range(Cells.Find("PAUL INC").Offset(-2, 0), Cells.Find
("======").Offset(-3, 0)).EntireRow.Delete

Range("A1").Offset(4, 0).Activate

Do Until Cells.Find("PAUL INC") Is Nothing

Range(Cells.Find("PAUL INC").Offset(-2, 0), Cells.Find
("======").Offset(1, 0)).EntireRow.Delete

Loop

What is often done is to save the address of the starting cell and check
each time to see if Find has returned to it.

error, looking in Help for examples. What would be the
syntax of that save and comparison since I have the
offset and delete with the cells.find and range?
