excel - Searching and matching characters between 2 columns on 2 worksheets -


i have 2 worksheets (worksheet 1 & worksheet 2). trying searching characters in column on worksheet 1 , see if characters exist in column on worksheet 2. please note these characters not fixed, characters may added, removed, or changed. if exists in worksheet 2, bold characters in worksheet 1 corresponding cell.

worksheet 1

column a

jack james peter angel

worksheet 2

column a

jack ate apple. peter flies kite. henry wakes work. james went school.

my approach far using loops , if-else statements. thinking using instr find characters within sentence in worksheet 2.

dim startnum integer dim endnum integer dim rng1 range dim rng2 range  endnum =  startnum = 1 endnum     if rng1.value = instr(rng2.value) _         rng1.font.bold = true end if

select of column on worksheet 1 a1 active cell. choose home ► conditional formatting ► new rule* , when **new formatting rule* dialog appears, choose use formula determine cells format supply following in format values formula true: text box.

 =isnumber(match("*"&a1&"*", 'worksheet 2'!a:a, 0))

click format , select bold font tab. click ok once accept formatting , ok again create new rule.

i added few non-matching names worksheet 1 , topped formatting change bold blue font these results.

        conditional formatting text within text
