Hi guys, I found a very good VBA code but I have problem. When this code face with #N/A it gave an error and doesn't match. Can you help solve this problem and also I want the same code to green matching. What I should change ?
Note : after my searching i understood that, it is because #N/A :
Constant Error number Cell error value
xlErrDiv0 2007 #DIV/0!
xlErrNA 2042 #N/A
xlErrName 2029 #NAME?
xlErrNull 2000 #NULL!
xlErrNum 2036 #NUM!
xlErrRef 2023 #REF!
xlErrValue 2015 #VALUE!


VBA Code:
Sub HighlightStrings()
'Updateby Extendoffice
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim Rng As Range
Dim cFnd As String
Dim xTmp As String
Dim x As Long
Dim m As Long
Dim y As Long
Dim xFNum As Integer
Dim xArrFnd As Variant
Dim xStr As String
cFnd = InputBox("Please enter the text, separate them by comma:")
If Len(cFnd) < 1 Then Exit Sub
xArrFnd = Split(cFnd, ",")
For Each Rng In Selection
With Rng
For xFNum = 0 To UBound(xArrFnd)
xStr = xArrFnd(xFNum)
y = Len(xStr)
m = UBound(Split(Rng.Value, xStr))
If m > 0 Then
xTmp = ""
For x = 0 To m - 1
xTmp = xTmp & Split(Rng.Value, xStr)(x)
.Characters(Start:=Len(xTmp) + 1, Length:=y).Font.ColorIndex = 3
xTmp = xTmp & xStr
Next
End If
Next xFNum
End With
Next Rng
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
Don't really understand how to use the code. What text need to Enter how to recreate the error?

Hi,​
it's better to work with Text property rather than Value or obviously check the cell via VBA function IsError …​
