Find And Highlight Text ...

Oct 10, 2007

Each cell in Range AL3..AL50000 have text (sentence - description of problem).

Cell AL1 has my search word (i.e. loose)

I would like to search range AL3..AL5000 for word "Loose" - if found highlight every cell where was found - Yellow.

If AL1 is empty - remove all highlights.

Here is what I have so far (patches of codes found in this forum)


Sub FindTextInCell()

Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim myText As String

myText = Sheets("detail_report").Range("AL1").Value

If myText = "" Then Exit Sub

Set Found = Range("AK2..AK56000").Find(What:=myText, LookIn:=xlValues, lookAt:=xlPart, MatchCase:=False)

If Not Found Is Nothing Then

Found.Interior.ColorIndex = 36

End If
End Sub

My code highlights only first found cell and if I type any other search word - highlight from the 1st search does not get removed.

Find Columns By Name And Highlight Them Certain Colors Based On Text In Another Column

Jul 9, 2009

I have a worksheet with 20+ columns. For this macro, I only need to focus on 4 of them. However, none of these columns are ever in a fixed position so the macro would need to find them by name and NOT by column position. Here they are...

1. Vacation Type (will only have a text value of either "Cold" or "Warm")

2. Vacation Started (will always have a date *x/xx/xxxx)

3. Vacation Ended (sometimes it will have a date '*x/xx/xxxx' and sometimes it will NOT have a date and will be truly blank)

4. Number of Days (currently has ALL truly blank cells)

THIS WHOLE MACRO SHOULD NOT BE CASE SENSITIVE ANYWHERE

Here's what I would like the macro to do...

Scenario 1 - for "Cold" values
Find "Cold" text values in the "Vacation Type" column
"Cold" values WITH a date in the "Vacation Ended" columnIF there IS a date in the "Vacation Ended" column in the same row, put the number of days difference between the "Vacation Started" column and "Vacation Ended" column in the "Number of Days" column.

The amount of days in the "Number of Days" column will determine whether these cells should be highlighted GREY or RED.

A) IF the number of days difference is 7 days or less, highlight the cells in the "Vacation Ended" column and "Number of Days" column RED.
OR..............................

Highlight Specific Text Within A Cell Of Other Text

Jun 19, 2009

This is the text:

Take 5 PPE Swabs per Area, Both Shifts. Test various equipment - hands, aprons, sleeves, hats, etc.

What I need is for "Take 5 PPE Swabs per Area, Both Shifts." to be bold and highlighted in gray, but none of the other text. Conditional formatting highlights the entire cell, which won't work.

Find Number And Highlight In Yellow

Jan 18, 2014

I would like to have a macro that searches a selected area for a number (there may be many of them in the spreadsheet) and highlight it in yellow. Please be noted that I don't only want it to search and highlight the number in its respective order, but also every one of its possible arrangement. To make it easier, please also be noted that all of the numbers I will need to search are only 3 digit numbers.

Highlight Selected Cell When Using FIND

Jun 12, 2008

I have a worksheet with lots of data on it, resulting in a very busy layout. I have been using "FIND" to search for various numbers within the spreadsheet, however often times it is hard to see which cell "FIND" selects.

Is there a way to enable Excel to highlight the selected cell? For example could "Find" turn the cell yellow when it finds a match?

Find And Highlight Specific Numbers

Jan 22, 2009

I have a spreadsheet with a stock list. Each item has an individual number. I have a code below, which I have doctored from other various sources. The problem I have is that if I search for number '12' the spreadsheet highlights every cell with 12 in (120 121 122 123 etc...) Is there any way I can change the code so that it returns only the 12 and not every cell that contains 12? The current code is as follows:

Quick Way To Find And Highlight Multiple Rows?

Feb 14, 2014

I have a very large spreadsheet (46,000 rows). There are a couple hundred rows I need to find and highlight, and also insert potentially-linked contract numbers in a second column.

For example:

Column 1: Column 2:
Contract # Linked Contract #
12345 67890

Is there a quick way to do this without using find and replace to highlight all several hundred of these rows? I have an hour and a half until I leave work and my boss wants it today! Compounded is the problem that there are about 100 versions of this spreadsheet I need to do this for.

Macro To Find Unique Values And Highlight Them?

Apr 9, 2009

Is there a way i can have a macro find the unique values in these 3 columns and highlight them yellow.

They should find uniques using all 3 columns, not find them within each column.

I included a file which shows what i start off with and what it needs to look like. Also if it matters the contents in the cells are from links. ( i know that matters because you have to put look in values in the code ).

VBA Code To Find Dups, Highlight Them With Different Colors, Pretty Complicated

Aug 29, 2008

I'm trying to find some vba code that will find dups on my worksheet and highlight them in a special way: first dup = bright yellow, second dup = bright green, third dup = bright red, and if there is a forth, fifth or sixth dup, then just increment color number to next one, than next, etc...

I would like for the code to run as soon as there is a change on the worksheet (when I finish entering data in a row). I think I already have the right code to do that:


Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("E9:E10000")) Is Nothing Then
Call dupSearch
End If
End Sub
I tested it out, seems to work as it should.

My major problem is that I need the code to check column F9:F10000 and compare the cells all along that column. That column concatenates 3 other cells in that same row (lastname&firstname&employee#), so if I run my dupSearch on that column only, I should find only real dups, and not just 2 people with the same name.

I also need to make sure it doesn't find empty cells, thinking they are dups. I would like to highlight column A to E of the row that contains the dup, and not just the cell in column F.

I have tried many other codes that I have found on the forum, but none of them work right with what I'm trying to do, and I just don't know enough VBA to make the changes I need.

Search Row By Column Value And Highlight Text - For Each Row

Jul 8, 2014

I've got a large Excel table that's full of names and e-mail addresses - it's a report of e-mails that merges some data from two systems we use; a registration form and a database. We want to clean up the data so it only lists folks who 'registered' (it's not always BOTH people listed - sometimes it's only one!) - and the best way to do that is to take the information from a specific column in each row, see if it exists elsewhere in the row and clear the information that doesn't match.

For example:
-A----------------B------------------C--------------------D--------------E------------------F-------------------G-
John ---------- Smith -------- js@email.com -------- Jane -------- Smith --------- js@email.com ------ John
Richard ------ McGee ---------j@email.com-----------Jim----------Samename ----jsn@email.com-------Rich
Mary-----------Ladyface ------ms@email.com--------Steve -------Smith ----------ss@email.com-------Steve

Ideally, for each row I'd like to search A and D for the string from column G. If it finds it, the cell and the two cells to the right are fine - but everything else is 'cleared' (not deleted).

So the above table would look like:
-A----------------B------------------C--------------------D--------------E------------------F-------------------G-
John ---------- Smith -------- js@email.com --------------------------------------------------------------- John
Richard ------ McGee ---------j@email.com-----------------------------------------------------------------Rich
-------------------------- -------------------------------Steve -------Smith ----------ss@email.com-------Steve
