Find in Named Range problem (2nd Try)
Hello. I'm using Excel X on a Mac (VBA5?) and attempting to write a macro
which names a range of text cells I've selected, then searches the cells in that range and bolds any which contain the "" character (as text, not as "greater than" in a formula). I'm not using conditional formatting because I also want to get rid of the characters once the bolding is complete. In stepping through the following, I find that it does name the range and does the finding and bolding in a loop. Unfortunately it doesn't stop at the end of the range, but continues down the entire column. I always stop it there so I do not know if the last "find and replace" section works at all. I've tried everything I can find, so any help would be appreciated. I apologize for the many REM statements, but they help me keep it straight in my head as I am building it. Also the indenting did not paste with the code, so I've tried to recreate it here. Sub NLFI_Find_Recc_Char_Bold_Loop() ' ' Before running this, select a range of cells with ' Cntl+Shift+DwnArrow. This is made a named range below ' Selection.Name = "ReccFunds_Range" ' ' Loop through that range to Find character and bold ' contents of cells containing it ' For Each Cell In Range("ReccFunds_Range") Cells.Find(What:="", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:= _ xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByColumns, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _ False).Activate With ActiveCell.Characters(Start:=1, Length:=0).Font .FontStyle = "Bold" End With Next Cell ' ' Next section globally finds all in range and replaces them with nothing ' Range("ReccFunds_Range").Select Selection.Find(What:="", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt _ :=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByColumns, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _False).Activate Selection.Replace What:="", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, _ SearchOrder:=xlByColumns, MatchCase:=False End Sub |
