    Multi color characters in a cell

    Hi,

    Have someone used any workaround to show multi-color characters in a cell that are actually returned by a formula i.e. is retaining the formula as well.

    Example:

    in Cell A3 I have the formula "=B3&C3" and the result of the formula is "Imran Rawalpindi". I want to show this as:

    Imran Rawalpindi

    Hope I am clear.

    Best Regards

    Imran Bhatti

    Certainly not possible without VBA - shall I move the thread?

    Not possible with VBA either. You cannot format part of a cell that contains a formula.

    Thanks, Fluff13

    I had reached the same conclusion but just wanted to know if someone has what I don't know.
