Excel can VBA UDF output formatted text?

Functions are not allowed to alter the formatting of the worksheet. That being said, Sub() can and you can easily write a Sub routine that does this - it just means you'll have to run the macro (like using F8) instead of entering it as a formula inside a cell.

Sorry, but you can't apply rich text formatting to the result of a formula.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
