Search Word document based on text in Excel cell.
Hello all,
I have this recurrent task where I need to search trough a document for a bunch of keywords and highlight them somehouw, preferred with a different color.
Of course I can do an Cntl-F enter text and search for it but the keywords are too much.
Let me explain it on a easy way,
Excel:
A list of cells (in one column) with keywords, say: green dog, big cat, small bird, green tree etc.
Word:
A portion of text where the spoken keywords may appear randomly.
Desired:
If a keyword (actually sentence because it can have multiple words) is found in the Word text it should be highlighted (preferrable a different color for keyword). Would be superduper if a cell in Excel near to the keyword would display if the keyword was found or not.
Just wanted to know if some of you experts saw somewhere a solution for this and can tell me where to fing it.
Any help would be grateful!
Cheers,
Fred.
