Hello,

Hopefully some of the experts here will be able to help me with my problem.

I wrote a simple macro to check a cell for font with a strikethrough and could not figure out why it kept coming back as false even when visibly, the text had a strikethrough. I took a look at the format cells window and noticed that instead of there being a check-mark, the box was completely filled in. Clicking on the box and changing it to a checkmark fixes the issue but since I don't control the data source, this wont work for me.

Anyone have an idea on what the filled in checkbox means and how I can still check for this type of strikethrough?

Thank you.
