Check for text within cells and make bold
Hi,
Is it possible to check the text within a group of cells (each cell contains a full sentence) and if the words "PROVISIONAL SUM" are in a cell, then make only the text "PROVISIONAL SUM" bold. eg A3 = Supply and install conduits for power cable beneath proposed roads and existing trees (PROVISIONAL SUM) Thanks Troy |
