Function For Determine If Cell Has 'mingled Bold Text'
Jan 11, 2010
I have the following formula (taken from the web) in my spreadsheet which let me know if a cell have bold text or not. But when the cell has 'mingled' text, i.e. only partly bold, he gave a #VALUE error.
I want to have a function or macro that if cells have mingled bold text, that only the bold text shall remain in the cells, and all the rest of the text must be deleted.
I'm trying to create a VBA module that will update data. However, I need it to skip any updates to data that has been set by the user. For simplicity, the user changes will be bold. I've found the info on the site for a function for counting cells in a range that are bold. But really just need to know how to get format of the cell.
I'm trying to use the below vba code that was provided by another member. The code show work to bold any text that is found matching the text string provided.
Problem I'm having is that I get a 'Type mismatch' error when the code tries to run, as below:
Public Function Colorandbold() 'USE-COLOR AND BOLD TEXT STRINGS WITHIN TEXT EXCEL VBA 'BROUGHT TO YOU BY WWW.PROGRAMMINGLIBRARY.COM 'CREATED BY MARK SLOBODA
I am trying to bold specific text in a cell. I have found some language that will do this trick to a point. In addition to the word "Foxwood" I would like to bold 9 other specific words in 5 different sheets in this workbook. Is there a way to do this without the cumbersome task of repeating this language 5 times for the different sheets and 9 times for the additional words?
Dim startPos As Integer Dim totalLen As Integer Dim searchText As String searchText = "Foxwood" For Each cl In Sheets("Week1").Range("c3:c100")
i have a worksheet which has a price list for parts, about 2500 rows. in the Column C i have a retail price and in Column D have -5% of the C. i need to add Column E -10% of CERTAIN items, the ones in BOLD Only, of Column D. and change the color of that cell, is there a easy way to do this. i have attached screen shot what i mean.
I am creating a sheet with the cell information coming from different cells. I want to bold and/or underline a part of the cell to add clarity.
For e.g. Cell A1 = "Trans X" (Name of the transaction); Cell B1 = "System Y" (System where the transaction exists) Cell C1 = "Type Z" (Type of transaction)
I want to create a cell which has Newsheet.Cell (x,y) = "Name: Trans X System: System Y Type: Type Z"
I created the String by reading and concatenating the values, but I am not sure how to add the formatting to a part of the string.
I am merging columns. Col B has all text in bold. Col C has all text in regular font. When I use ASAP to merge, the merged column comes out all bold. When I use a formula to merge the merged column comes out all regular. What I want is for the merged column to contain the bold text from Col B in bold, and the regular text from Col C in regular.
What I want is...
This is for service plan B: Take all data and transer to new server.
What I am getting is...
This is for service plan B:Take all data and transer to new server.
OR
This is for service plan B:Take all data and transer to new server.
I am trying to create a macro that if a value in a cell in column A is bold, then the value in the same row in column H is bold, then loop it to run on the rest of the worksheet.
I have tried searching for a way for VBA to recognise in VBA if a cell contains any text, but most of my searches respond to specific cases for specific characters in a string
Basically, I'm just looking for the correct way to word a string of code that if it detects any text in column B (col 2 ) then it should not do anything, else it should cut the value in col 2 and paste it in col 8
How can I interrogate the contents of a cell to determine whether or not it contains a number formatted as text? I intend to run a .value = .value over each such cell to convert it to a number format, but I only want to do this to relevant cells.
I need to split each line as follows : Each title (in bold and on a new line) and the text who follows should be placed in a new row, copying the date in each new row created.
I have a sheet full of names, addresses and phone numbers in one cell like this
Albert Young 16 teststreer 12C..................7888-6338
The name Albert Young is bold. The thing is I would like to split the cell putting the names in another colomn. Then it would be ideal to split the addresses and phone numbers as well. But I have no idea how to split any of these. I scanned this from a phone book, the dots are different on each row.
I have a spreadsheet with a pivot table in it. Column "G" has all of the data in it I need to abbreviate, problem is, I only want the values in BOLD face, and there are 3-5 rows seperating each boldfaced item. I would have to manually copy-paste each bold value into a new, 'clean' column ( column "I", or in a new sheet/workbook, it doesn't matter), and lather-rinse-repeat for the next 700+ rows. It sucks. No, it really does. I stumbled upon this website which is seemingly the utopia for excel macro and programming problems, so is there anyone out there that might take the time to walk me through it...?
Every week I have a worksheet compiled with large range of data, being input after many meetings done. The action-owner Names in open/close brackets are among the long text input in one Column (there are not more than 50 rows of data).
My problem is that in the Column every time I have to manually Bold-face the owner names in the cells that have their names, pressing F2 and Bold. Examples: ...(Wilfred)... or ...(Jacky/Joseph)... Can someone please help me with a code, say I can list out a fixed list of selected text and such code will be able to have these selected text (which is names in this case) in the cells bold-faced.
I'm not too sure if this will be really easy difficult or really difficult but I want to write some code that compares the value of two strings, and any characters that arent in string 2 will be return formatted in bold. For example, if String1 was "The Quick Brown Fox" and String2 was "The Quick Yellow Fox jumped over the lazy dog", String2 would then be returned as "The Quick Yellow Fox jumped over the lazy dog".
I've got a messagebox in my VBA code and I would like to bold the title of the filename that I've stored in a variable. My message box code (even though you probably don't need to see it) is as follows:
MsgBox ("There has been error. Please check the file - " & strFile & " and make sure there are no #REF errors." & vbCrLf _ & "If there are, correct the errors, save the workbook and regenerate the report. If the error still persists, reboot your machine and try again.")
Is this possible, and if so, how would I go about bolding the strFile variable?
I have a spreadsheet with rows of cells which are either blank or have text in them.
Is there an easy way to write a formula which will make the cells which have text in them bold and make the cell colour grey. But if the cell is blank keep the cell white.
I'm using excel to open a new word document, stick some text on different lines and then save and close. The trouble is, I want to bold the titles but when I do I either bold or unbold the entire document. The codes looks like this:
With wrdDoc With .Content .InsertAfter "TEST" .Bold = True End With
I would like to choose an option (C, Q, T) and get a result in 1 column.
In other words, if I type C in H6, I must get a different result in I6 as opposed to if I choose Q or T in the same column. However if I leave it blank I should have nothing or a 0 in I6.
In the attachment above you will see that I gave a sum for C (A3), Q (A4) and T (A5). The sum for each one is broken down into a percentage rate and a flat rate.
These rates are dependent on the initial amount entered into G6. C, Q, T stand for Cash, Cheques, Transfers. The form of transaction determines the % and flate rate to be charged.
