$$Excel-Macros$$ Spell Check and Highlighting Individual Words
Hi I have an Excel sheet with VBA which is designed to compare two boxes of text/copy and highlight any differences. The existing code is very good although, it does not currently highlight individual words (it only changes the box color to red to suggest there is an error). Here is the existing code (the spreadsheet can also be shared if that would be useful?): 'check the spelling of the selected text Select Case bcheck Case True If SpellingIsCorrect(sCopy) = False Then If .Range(Q plRow).Value = Then .Range(Q plRow).Value = Check ASFspelling Else .Range(Q plRow).Value = .Range(Q plRow).Value | Check ASF spelling End If End If If SpellingIsCorrect(sEmail) = False Then If .Range(Q plRow).Value = Then .Range(Q plRow).Value = Check email spelling Else .Range(Q plRow).Value = .Range(Q plRow).Value | Check email spelling End If .Range(J plRow).Select 'background = red asthis is an error With Selection.Interior .Pattern = xlSolid .PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic .ThemeColor = xlThemeColorAccent2 .TintAndShade = 0.399945066682943 .PatternTintAndShade = 0 End With End If Case Else 'do nothing as we do not want to check the spelling in anything but the above sections End Select Is it possible to adapt the code so that individual (incorrectly spelt) words are highlighted (rather than the whole block)?

Re: $$Excel-Macros$$ Spell Check and Highlighting Individual Words
Hi Rajan Thanks so much for your speedy response. I've added the code to my complete VBA but, it is not working. Could I send the workbook to you for review? (it's not clear how to attach to this thread??) I am still very much an amateur with regards to VB! Kind regards Greg On Oct 13, 2:53 pm, rajan verma rajanverma1...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Try this ..
