Is it possible to use 2 different fonts in 1 excel cell?
Does the cell contain text--not real numbers, not a formula.
If yes, select the cell. highlight the characters you want to change using the formula bar and the mouse. Use the menu (format|cells) or use the Format icon on the formatting toolbar. cmock wrote: -- Dave Peterson |

Dave,
If there is a formula in the cell, then how can you designate different formats? here is my formula: =IF(SIGN(Q7)=-1,"Neg IBITDA","Pos IBITDA") Thanks!

Formulas won't allow this kind of character by character formatting.

Conditional Formatting would do the trick for you.
Let's say your formula above is located in cell A1. Then in that cell do FormatConditional Formatting. Change the Condition 1 field to "Formula Is" and enter the formula =A1="Neg IBITDA" Next, click the Format button and change the format (font, font style, size, color, etc.) to whatever you want. For "Pos IBITDA", you could either Add a second condition or simply set the default format for that cell to whatever you want for "Pos" and it would then only change for "Neg". |

Now click Format and change the format (font, font style, size, color, etc.) to whatever you want. For "Pos IBITDA", you could either Add a second condition, or simply set the default for the cell to whatever style you want for the "Pos", and it would then only change if "Neg". |

Conditional formatting won't allow the OP to format "Neg" or "Pos" on way and
the remainder of the characters another. "Paul D. Simon" wrote: Conditional Formatting would do the trick for you. Let's say your formula above is located in cell A1.
