Hi,
following problem is causing me sleepless nights:

I have got a table containing a list of patents. I would like to
search for specific terms/words in the abstracts of the patents and to
mark them by changing their color. I do not want to change the color
of the whole cell containing the specific word.
I tried to record a macro but that does not seem to be possible. At
least Excel does not want to.

Can somebody help me in writing a macro for that purpose?

Thanks,
Luca

Table looks like this

search for:   WORD
Nr.    Title     Abstract
Author ....
1     blabla    blubblub WORD blub blub          sdfsdf
2     blublu    blabbla WORD bla bla bla          werwer
3     blibli      blimblum blae WORD blimblam   jhgkhjk
...
