Not from me, well, not on purpose.

My old company were in the process of converting from teletype terminals to CRTs
(and full screen editors!) when I started. I did my best to stay away from
them--except when there was no choice.

Not a problem (to me anyway <bg).

But with your initials, everything should be CLR, er, clear!

time.........thanks for pointing it out.

I read the OR as another way to change the fill color--not as another
suggestion.

Yup........that's why I suggested it as "OR"....if the font size is
increased a couple of points and the color changed to RED it makes
it a
pretty good substitute for a "highlighter swipe"

But that is the font color--not the fill color (background).

Or, just select the word Saturday in the formula bar and change
it's
font
color and/or size to be different than the rest of the
string........

It's not possible to change the fill color this way.

But you could put a rectangle from the Drawing Toolbar over
the
word,
remove the
border and color it green. But it's an ugly workaround.

So sorry, I messed up my previous post. I would like to
highlight
the
background of one word only contained in a cell. For
example,
my
cell
content is: Today is Saturday. I want the word Saturday to
appear
with
a
green background (as if I manually highlighted it with a
marker).
Can
anyone
tell me how to do this? Thank you!
