Greetings All,
I'm looking for a VBA solution or function to help in this scenario. In A2 I have some text. I want to know if some of that text is in a long text string within B2. And if so, HIGHLIGHT that text so it is easily identifiable.

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
