Hi Tom,

Thank you!

My brain and my typing fingers were at variance.

LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole


Lookin:=xlValues
says to look at what the formula produces and not at the formula itself.

Lookat:=xlWhole means the match must be to the whole value of the cell.
if you used xlpart, it would match "and" to "Sand" for example

hmm,

I tried this and woohoo it does work only it doesnt work...

I figured out why tho, the values I want to format are all being pulled
in via a lookup, is there anyway to make excel think they are just there
and not part of a formula?
