I have a list of key words in column A in Range A2:A11.
In column B (Range B2:B2334) I have text (1 paragraph in each cell). For each cell in column B, I want to check if any of the words in column A are included.
This could take a few seconds to run. It will highlight cells in column B which have matching text.
Code:
Sub t()
Dim i As Long, j As Long
For i = 2 To 2334
For j = 2 To 11
If InStr(Cells(i, 2).Value, Cells(j, 1).Value) > 0 Then
Cells(i, 2).Interior.Color = vbYellow
Exit For
End If
Next
Next
End Sub
