If you are searching for a word match like 'vision' uncheck 'Match entire
cell contents' and find ' vision 'FindAll... which will list down cell references which is having a full word 'vision' in between sentences. 'with 'Match Case' checked 'Vision ' 'sentences ending with vision. ' vision.' If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "Jack" wrote: Sorry, it cannot work.

Is there any solution to it? Please help me. Thanks in advance. Jack |

Still no help. It still finds words containing 'vision', like division, etc.
Well, I now understand that excel does not have such a function. Anyway, thank you for your help, Jacob Skaria.
