    Separating data groups and formatting certain data text in red

    Hi All,

    I have a data sheet that has 7 columns (A:G) and nearly 40,000 rows.
    ColD and ColE have the data that need to be worked on.
    Each word or phrase in ColD starts a group of data across all the rows until the next word or phrase. There are no duplicate strings in ColD per each group. Duplicates are replaced with underscore (_).
    Sheet1 illustrates what is mentioned above.
    Sheet2 illustrated what is needed to be done. It shows that each group is separated with one empty line from the group below, and words and phrases in ColE are formatted in red once they are found in ColD.

    Can I get some precious assistance with this question, please?

    Always .. many thanks in advance.

    T.

    Change partial font color for 40,000 rows will take time...

    Re: Separating data groups and formatting certain data text in red

    Thank you very much Jindon for such genius code which ran smoothly with absolutely no performance problem.

    However, as I ran it on a sample data, I noticed that words and phrases in ColD which lie in the middle or at the end of the text in ColE are not coloured in red.

    I formed another example for you to observe the highlighted rows in Sheet1 which remained the same after running the code in Sheet2.

    I do value your assistance which is always given to me.

    Thank you very much indeed Jindon.

    Absolutely right Jindon. The required result is obtained 100% thanks to your genius code.
    I really don't know how to thank you for such constant assistance you're providing to me.
