    VBA: automatically mark individual letters in a cell based on value of above cell?

    i've been trying to figure out if this is possible: Say I've got a long list, sorted alphabetically by sort. All entries of equal length and structure in one column. Is it possible to have excel mark every letter that is different from the cell above. Example:

    A4:=360.020-SK5H2306B
    A5:=360.011-SK5H2306A
    A6:=360.011-SQ4G2101A
    A7:=360.011-SQ4G2102A

    If it is at all possible, then how?

    No - not with Excel functions. It may be possible with VBA - shall I move the thread for you?
