Thread: Bold Text Highest value cells in each column of several tables

    Bold Text Highest value cells in each column of several tables

    Hi first time poster and very green with VBA

    I have a word document with several numerical tables and I am wanting to highlight the highest value in each column of each table by making the font bold.

    Is it possible to do this with a macro?

    For example:
    Sub TblBldNum()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim Tbl As Table, r As Long, c As Long, x As Long, v As Single, StrTxt As String
    For Each Tbl In ActiveDocument.Tables
      With Tbl
        For c = 1 To .Columns.Count
          v = 0: x = 0
          For r = 1 To .Rows.Count
            StrTxt = Split(.Cell(r, c).Range.Text, vbCr)(0)
            If IsNumeric(StrTxt) Then
              If CSng(StrTxt) > v Then
                v = CSng(StrTxt): x = r
              End If
            End If
          Next
          If x > 0 Then .Cell(x, c).Range.Font.Bold = True
        Next
      End With
    Next
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    End Sub
    Note: If two or more cells in the column have the same maximum value, only the first will be bolded. To bold all cells matching the maximum value, replace:
          If x > 0 Then .Cell(x, c).Range.Font.Bold = True
    with:
          If x > 0 Then
            .Cell(x, c).Range.Font.Bold = True
            StrTxt = Split(.Cell(x, c).Range.Text, vbCr)(0)
            For r = x + 1 To .Rows.Count
              With .Cell(r, c).Range
                If Split(.Text, vbCr)(0) = StrTxt Then .Font.Bold = True
              End With
            Next
          End If
