Default Find and Replace without changing font

Gave the code referenced in the below link a whirl, but I'm getting this
error: "Cannot define a Public user-defined type within an object module".

Don't know enough VBA to be able to correct it. Any ideas?

Thanks.

I think you'll have to look at each character and keep track of the font (and
all the other attributes???).

You may want to try this:

Let's say the content of a cell is something like this:
<tagabc</tag <tagdef</tag

And let's also say that strings "abc" and "def" are a different font than
the tags. Let's say the tags are Times New Roman while the strings between
tags are Arial.

When I do a find and replace to delete the space between "</tag <tag", the
font of my strings changes from Arial to Times New Roman.

Is there a way to prevent this from happening?

Using Excel 2003.
