Thank you Pete_UK. Does anyone have a suggestion for a macro that does the following:
- Prompts the user for a word or phrase.
- Searches only column C for the word or phrase.
- Highlights in red all occurrances of the word or phrase in column C.

The attached file shows how something similar can be achieved with conditional formatting. Enter a keyword or phrase in cell K1 (yellow), and if it is found in column C the whole cell is highlighted. The CF condition in cell C2 is:
=ISNUMBER(FIND($K$1,C2))
which makes it case-sensitive (try "the" and "The" in K1). If case is not important then you can change FIND to SEARCH.
Hope this helps.
Pete
