Ok, I understand how formula is working. And I saw I wasn't clear enough
of
what I want it to get as resault. So I have table with text in the rows.
Words are in black and just some of them have red letter. What I need to
do
is to extract the whole word that contain red letter, not just the letter.
it is something like that
A B C D
1 bl<ue blue blue blue
2 blue blue blue blu<e
3 blu<e b<lue bl<ue blu<e
4 blue blue blue blue
< - red letter

Mariela,
You would need to use a User-Defined-Function. See the definition
below.
Copy and paste it into a codemodule in your workbook, then use it like
=ColorWord(A1,3)
to extract the red letters from cell A1.

Hi, I have table with A,B,C and D colums and text in the rows.
Some of the words in the text are with bold and different color
letter.
I need to extract those words.
How can I do this?
I'm using Excel 2003
Thanks in advance,
Mariela
