I’m not sure what you want to do with the value and you didn’t state if you’ll will encounter multiple occurrence of a cell that doesn’t contain False. But If you run the macro while the range is selected, this will show a message of for the cell value and the range



Dim cel As Range
For Each cel in Selection
If cel.value <> “False” then MsgBox cel.value & “ in cell “ & cel.Address
Next cel
