Hi,
I have something like a document in an Excel Workbook. I have placeholders in the contents of cells. I need to find each of these and replace them using VBA. I am facing problems with limitations in Excel 1) Find - Replace will not work in cells with large amount of text. 2) If some characters of a cell are formatting in a different way (say bolded or italicised), then Find -Replace changes the formatting. 3) The cells are merged and text is warpped. After the replace is done, I want the cells to accomodate the new length so that all characters are visible. Autofit does not seem to help in this case. I have tried using textboxes instead. Here text wrapping is not a problem. And I got the Find-Replace to work. But couldn't get the text formatting to stay as is. I can send the workbooks if required. Please help me find solutions or work arounds to these problems. Thanks, Priya |
