RE: CHANGING A TEXTBOX SUBSTRING TO RED. KNOWING WHERE TO START AND STOP...

[chazrab]

Title self explanatory. Is there a way to do the following:
? i.e., 3 Jesus answered and said to him, (start red text font)"Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God." (end red text font) John 3:3 (NASB)
[bolded just to indicate substring to change to red.

In traditional Bible software apps, Jesus words in red are between quotes except for fhe KJV, in which His words are not between quotes. To me, the start and ending
of the red substring would be between the starting and ending quotes, if this helps any. I can do this, but it colors the entire text, not just a string portion:

x = Me.TextBox6.Value
With Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("E1:E31103")
    Set c = .Find(x, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False)
If Not c Is Nothing Then
rw = 1
firstAddress = c.Address
Do
Worksheets("Sheet2").Select
c.Select
Range(Cells(c.Row, 2), Cells(c.Row, 7)).Copy Destination:=Sheets("RESULT").Range("B" & rw) 'search just KJV column 6
                rw = rw + 1
Set c = .FindNext(c)
Loop While Not c Is Nothing And c.Address <> firstAddress
End If
End With
Rowno = Sheets("RESULT").Range("B1").End(xlDown).Row
lastrow = Sheets("RESULT").Range("B" & Rows.count).End(xlUp).Row
Me.TextBox7.Value = lastrow & "  verses"
'If TextBox1.Text = "Jesus said to him" OR "Jesus answered and said" OR... Then  ' as expected this will change 
USERFORM1.TextBox1.ForeColor = RGB(255, 0, 0) '----> sort of works, but this colors entire search result, NOT just His words
'End If

To me, a possible solution, would just be to change the text substring to red if (1) the word Jesus appears and (2) some characters
AFTER look for a "(quote) , begin string text color and end it at "(quote). Would, could this be done with instr, Len, TEXT and substr functions?

Thanks for anyone's help.
