    Re: Search and highlight only containing text

    This is the amended code for your SEARCH button:
    Private Sub Search_Click()
    Dim LR As Long, Val As String, cell As Range, Rng As Range
    Dim dSh As Worksheet, v
    
    'Setup
        Application.ScreenUpdating = False
        Val = Range("E2").Value
        Set dSh = Sheets("DATABASE")
        Range("A9:F200").ClearContents
    
    'Transfer matching data
        LR = dSh.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
        dSh.Range("A2").AutoFilter
        dSh.Range("A2").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="=*" & Val & "*"
        dSh.Range("B2:F" & LR).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Copy Range("B9")
        dSh.Range("A2").AutoFilter
    
    'Color matching strings
        LR = Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
        Set Rng = Range("B10:F" & LR)
    
        For Each cell In Rng
            v = InStr(cell.Text, Val)
            If v > 0 Then
                cell.Characters(Start:=v, Length:=Len(Val)).Font.ColorIndex = 3
                v = 0
            End If
        Next cell
    
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    End Sub
