How do I highlight a word or sentence within Excel?
 
Is there a way to highlight certain words or sentences within Excel. I don't
want to hightlight the entire cell 9I know how to do that, I just want to
hightlight certain text.

Thank you.

You can select the words (or characters) in the formula bar, then use
Format|cells to change some formatting.

This won't work if the cell contains a formula or contains real numbers. It has
to be text.
