    Highlight cell with many words, with duplicates from row with single words.

    Would like a VBA script / macro that will compare a column of single words per row, to cell with many words, and highlight only the text of duplicates in the part of a cell with many words.

    Hello meows,

    This macro checks the contents of each in cell in column "A" that has entry against the words in a comma separated list in cell "B1". You can change these to match the locations you are using. They are marked in red. The words in the list are highlighted by bolding the font and changing it to red. It is not possible to highlight the background of each word individually.
