I've got a formula that takes text from one field to another and I want to add another bit of text from another. The thing is that I want that second bit of text to be in a different font size than the first.
Is there a formula or code that can do that?
 
A starting point:
With ActiveCell
.Value = .Text
.Characters(Start:=6).Font.Size = 14
End If

Hope This Helps, PH.

OOps, sorry for the typo:
With ActiveCell
.Value = .Text
.Characters(Start:=6).Font.Size = 14
End With

Thanks, but I still need the box to be dynamic, if the source cell changes, this cell would need to change as well.
 




Hi,

Did you check out HELP on the Characters Method in VBA?

Check out the LEN function also.

Thanks you guys. Problem I'm having now is that since it's code, The text in the cell isn't dynamic anymore. Is there an Excel function that can provide a change of font size?
 
Hi SysDupe123,

There's no built-in finction for that. You could use a User-Defined Function, which would build on the code PHV posted but, depending on what it is exactly that you want to have happening, this could be a fairly complex exercise.
