Hi Graham,

Thank you very much. This definitely hits the spot. You've saved me a great
deal of time (can you imagine having to do this manually on a series which
contains some 1800 to 2000 values)!

I am very grateful. Thank again for taking the time and effort (and also
finding the solution so quickly too).

Hi all,

Can anyone provide me with guidance.

I have a series of comma & space separated values in the format:-

542224452, 5422245#, 54222740, 54223425, 5422346, 542235, 54224140,
54224141#, 542244412, 542244413#, 542244414#, 542244415#, 542244416#,
542244417#, 542244418#.

I'd like use a find and replace function to find all the numbers
ending in a # and replace them with just the number (ie without the
#) but in bold (or another colour ie Red).

Any advice will be gratefully received.

Thanks in advance

Yandros
