Hi all,
Thanks to the wonderful help I received from Fernand and Christoph I have a
macro that takes a cell, emboldens the characters up to a fullstop and
leaves the remainder in normal weight. My own modest contribution was to
then remove the full stop so a cell like abcd.ef is converted to

First, a big thank you to Fernand and Christoph for all your help. Xray is

actually quite funny. Maybe there is a warning about it somewhere but if
not, perhaps there should be.

I'm now trying to get my head around how objects work in macros. I'm trying
