Hey all, new here and excited to ask questions and learn.

I was searching the net and all and couldn't find any specific answer to the question as the title implies.

So far I was able to learn, that if you want scrollable text in specific cell, I need to use under the Active-X section, choose the Text Box - which is good enough for me, but then I can't style the text inside that text box.

Is there a way for my request to be done?

I want - after setting up width, height and all for that specific cell - to be able to format/style text and scroll it inside that specific cell.

Thanks

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
You can change the format of text inside an ActiveX text box by right-clicking, selecting Properties, and changing Font and ForeColor properties. However, you cannot change individual characters the way you can in a cell.
