"classic" yellow highlighter
Sorry if this question has been asked before, but I haven't been able to find
any definitive answer in the discussion groups. What I want to do is highlight some text, not all, inside a cell. The effect would be just like using a highlighter on paper. This is easily done in Word, but I can't find any way to do it in Excel. Any suggestions would be appreciated. BTW - using Excel 2003 w/ Windows XP SP2 Thanks |

Hi,
Select the cell and in the formula bar select the bit of text you want highlighted and click the font colour you want.

Thanks for the quick reply!
However, the effect I'm really wanting would be just like a highlighter used on paper. Changing the color of the text isn't quite what I need. Thanks, again.
