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

.Content.InsertAfter [Word_WordCount].Offset(0, 1).Value
.Content.InsertParagraphAfter

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.

Excel 2002 :: Files Corrupted - No Cells Just A Grey Space Where Cells Should Be?

Mar 9, 2012

I am using Excel 2002 and have had a couple of files that seem to have become corrupted recently. When I try to open the files there is nothing there, no cells just a grey space where the cells should be. When I try to close Excel it asks me if I want to save changes when no changes have been made.

I had not made any changes to the sheets prior to this happening so am struggling to work out what is going on.

Conditional Grey-out And Disabling Of Cells

Oct 1, 2008

I need to find a way to do conditional formatting and disabling of a cell based on a value from another cell. For instance if A1=X,Y, or Z, then B1 will get grayed out and cell entry will be disabled. This is so that when skimming over the sheet, you can tell what cells in row B you need to put info in still, and if it's grayed you'll know you don't have to put anything there (and it won't let you).

Grey Out / Disable Cells In A Row Based On Frequency Value

Feb 14, 2012

Essentially, I'm creating a spreadsheet which contains a list of staff in rows, and the months of the year as columns. It is to record certain company checks which must be done (e.g. driving licence check). When a check is complete, the date it was done is entered under the corresponding month. Certain checks (e.g. driving license) only need to be done every 6 months. What I'm trying to do is find a formula/vba to look at each row, determine where (which month) the date was entered in, and grey out the 5 months in front, meaning the next check is required in 6 months time.

Ideally, the frequency of this check is dynamic, and can reference a cell (e.g. might change to every 3 months etc).

Bold Specific Text In A Cell

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")

Automatically Copy Only BOLD Text

Jul 1, 2004

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...?

Bold Selected Text In A Column

Jan 30, 2007

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.

To Bold A Part Of The Cell Text

Apr 8, 2007

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.

Bold Common Text In 2 Strings

Dec 14, 2007

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".

Bold Part Text In Message Box

Feb 29, 2008

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?
