May 19, 2013I need to underline text which is populated from a formula. How to format numbers, dollars and dates within a formula, but how to underline text.
Desired Result: The employee's who sold more than 100 cars this month are: Alex, Mike and Tim. Please congratulate them on their performance!
Formula being used ="The employee's who sold more than 100 cars this month are: "&cell reference&"Please congratulate them on their performance!"
Current result: The employee's who sold more than 100 cars this month are: Alex Mike Tim Please congratulate them on their performance!
Attempts: I wish underlining text were an option within Format Cells/Custom so I could just use the formula =text(cell reference, "underline"). However, I don't see that as an option in the 2007 or 2010 versions. Is there a way to add "underline text" as my own custom format?
I also tried using "Conditional Formatting" (both "Format cells only that contain" and "Use a formula to determine which cells to format)." I can't quite get it because I don't know how to list names for the former conditional formatting. Vlookup is the only way I know how to refer to a list for the formula based conditional formatting, but this would stop after the first name on the list is found and ignore the rest of them.

Apr 23, 2006I need bolding and underlining cells that are "Concatenated". For example, cell format for cell K12 is already bolded and underlined. If I concatenate (C1,K12,D2) I get a result that doesn't carry over the format of those individual cells - particularly K12 which I want BOLDED and UNDERLINED.

Jan 12, 2014What I mean by my "bold" underlines:
QRG5UUl.png
Notice the difference between the bold underline and the normal ones. There is also some weird thing happening where in some cells, when I use the underline feature, it shows as a bold underline, but once I've pressed enter to move on to another cell, the underline reverts back to normal. If I select to edit (F2 or double-clicking) said cell, the underline becomes bold, and vice versa (s3lw.png).
All this started happening immediately after I did this (was just experimenting, and I have no idea what this actually does, or if it was the cause of those occurences): Insert > Symbol > Special Characters > No-width optional break. I did that to just one cell though, and now all this weird stuff is happening.
Copy Format And Bold Titles In String?
Apr 24, 2014I'm working on a Excel template where 6 cells are filled with text. Now I want to put all the text in those cells into one 'result cell'. I already know how to put the cell values into strings and paste them beneath each other.
My problem is that I don't only want to copy the cell values but also the formatting, because all of the separate cells have a bold title. If I only copy the values the formatting isn't copied with it, so my question is:
How do I copy the cell formatting (bold titles) with it or how can I make a string bold?? Beneath is my code:

Apr 10, 2008I have a mass of text in a cell. I would ideally like to search the text to format in a different font colour so it can be easily seen where the specific text is.
My current way is to use SEARCH in conditional formatting but this changes the whole cell not the specific text I am interested in.
EG. - I interested in the text PETER in my cell so would like PETER to be in red font.

Bold Repeated String In Cell?
Aug 29, 2012I am trying to write some code that will look in an excel cell find if it contains the word that I am looking for and make it bold. I have written the following code so far

.Characters(Start:=InStr(.Value, "Name"), Length:=Len("Name")).Font.Bold = True

Finding Text That Matches Format Criteria In String?
Oct 3, 2011I'm trying to restructure a list of files at work into a format that makes some sort of sense and can be filtered into useful information.
Part of what I need to do, is match up all the drawing numbers that a certain project references. The numbers are formatted like "####A##" ex. 1234A01,1234A02,5678A01, etc. The cells that I need to extract drawing numbers from contain some description or other text (not just the drawing number) so I need to extract the drawing number from that cells value. (Ex. I need to get the drawing number 1234A01 from a cell whose value is "blah blah 1234A01 blah blah blah")
I was thinking I could just search the string for "####A##" but I'm not really sure how....I tried instr, but I think its searching for the literal value of "####A##" rather than treating the # characters as wildcards...
I tried:
Code:
if rngNames.Cells(intx, 2).Value Like ("*####A##*") then
set intStart = instr(1,rngnames.Cells(intx,2).value,"####A##")
'....
end if
but intStart remains 0, so this method is not working...
Adding Bold Tags To Parts Of A String?
Oct 21, 2011I'm trying to figure out a macro that will add b and /b tags around bold text. Bolded text can appear multiple times within a cell. I need it to run on all cells within a sheet.
So I need it to:
1. Search for bold strings within cells
2. Identify the length of the bolded strings
3. Add b and /b at the beginning and end of those strings
4. Repeat for all active cells
The only macro I was able to work out adds tags to only the last bolded string, whereas I need the tags on several non-continuous strings.
Custom Cell Format - Number Ending With Text String
Jun 13, 2013How to modify a custom cell format to make data entry easier.
My goal is to have the output look like this: 'A12B-C20D: SET 10: Text string here'
Inputs needed are:
1-3 digit number between A & B
1-3 digit number between C & D
1-2 digit number after SET
Text string of variable length
Where I am stuck. So far I can get "A12B-C20D: SET 10:" to show up properly when 122010 is input. The custom format I am using looks like this: "A"##"B-C"##"D: SET "##": "
When I try to incorporate the "@" symbol the first part of the formatting goes away and the output shows up as "122010 Text string here".
I have tried:
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##":";;-;_@
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##": ";;@
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##":";_@
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##": ";;;@
Extracting Specific Information From Text String To Conform To Format To Upload Into QB
Mar 21, 2014I have a string of information in an Excel download from PayPal that I need to upload into QB; but, the information needs to be in a different format. The string from the download is:
Property Address - 1116 South PaxonBorrower " Testa and Son Contractors,LLCLoan # - 1402088Acct Executive " Brandon Tully
But, I need it to be:
1402040;TPAPR;141 North Clinton Street, East Orange, NJ 07017;Leslie P Carter
Is there a formula that I can use to extract specific information from the original string into columns so I can then concatenate the columns into the information I need to upload? Or is there a better way to do this? The Property Address and Borrower Name are not static sizes so I can't use a formula that counts spaces.
