Hello,
I can't figure out how to highlight a word in Excel (neither 2003 nor 2007). In Word, we have a small tool that looks like a highlighter that does this very well.
WARNING: I'm not looking to add a background color to a cell; I know how to do that, thanks ;) I just want to highlight a word in a cell that contains several words..
With all the miracles that Excel performs, I can't believe it can't just apply a little highlighter to a word...
Thank you for your insights :)

Hello, it's a bit late to respond, but since I've desperately searched for the same thing today, I'll explain how I "cheated" to achieve an identical appearance.
I created a mini text box around which I removed the borders, filled it with the desired color for my highlighting, typed the word I wanted to highlight in the same font and size as the rest of the content in my cell, and placed the resulting text box over the same word written in the cell in Excel!... and it works!...
