Hi guys,
Some time ago, I posted the question below, but didn't receive any 100% satisfactory answer. Could you take a look at this? Thanks! ------------- What is the best way to highlight (or even color) all the cells in a worksheet (or even in a workbook) containing a specific character? For exemple, I would like to make visually distinctive all the cells containing somewhere a "?" character (or "mmm" string, or "!" mark, or "=" sign). Are you aware of any special easy macro doing (and also undoing) this kind of stuff? Or do you have idea how to write a special formula to put in "conditionnal formatting" part? ------------- (To be more precise, I would like to find not only the cells where the reqested sign is the only one (f. ex. "?" in cell A1="?"), but also the cells where this sign is one parmi others (like f. ex. finding "?" in cell A2="mxz?wptex"). * * * One of my goals is to find (through this method) all the formulas (as they contain "=" sign), references to other sheets (looking for the "!" sign) and worksheets ("[", "]" and ".xls" signs). Please let me know if there is any other (simplier and more reliable) way to do this... Once again, many thanks folks! Mark |
