You can't have different colors in a cell that contains a formula.

As long as it's NOT a formula you can do anything you like. Or, convert
the
formula to a value and then do it.
To do with a macro, look in the vba help index for CHARACTER or record
doing
it to see what happened.

I have a formula which copies the text in cell A2 into B2. The text is
typed
in A2 in two different colours but when it is copied into B2 it shows
in
one
colour. Is it possible for it to show it in the same colours or is it
possible for me to have a function that locates a character and changes
the
colour of that character only and not the remaining characters in the
cell
