I wrote code to find these array elements if they are single strings in a cell and highlights them. It works well.
I am trying to adjust that code to highlight the elements if they are used in a sentence... "I like beer." or just 'beer' alone then it would be highlighted. This code comes up "No match found." and I have to hold esc key for about 500? iterations then the first occurance only of any found elements are highlighted. I'm thinking xlPart may be a problem also, but havn't got that far with the code yet. Thanks. Howard Sub MyBadFoodFind() Dim i As Long Dim MyArr As Variant Dim c As Range Sheets("Sheet1").Cells.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone Dim iRet As Integer Dim strPrompt As String Dim strTitle As String strPrompt = " Highlights have been removed." & vbCr & _ "If you want to continue click ""Yes.""" strTitle = "My Bad Eats" iRet = MsgBox(strPrompt, vbYesNo, strTitle) If iRet = vbNo Then Exit Sub Else ' End If MyArr = Array("milk", "soda", "fries", "pizza", "beer", "chips", _ "candy", "alcohol", "mcdonalds", "wendys", "burger king") Application.ScreenUpdating = False For Each c In Sheets("Sheet1").UsedRange For i = LBound(MyArr) To UBound(MyArr) Set c = Sheets("Sheet1").UsedRange.Find(What:=MyArr(i), _ LookIn:=xlValues, _ LookAt:=xlPart, _ SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _ SearchDirection:=xlNext, _ MatchCase:=False) If Not c Is Nothing Then c.Interior.ColorIndex = 6 Else MsgBox "No match found." End If Next 'i Next 'c Application.ScreenUpdating = True End Sub |
