@Macropod, your revised code worked! I tried it on a list I moved over into another word docx. It made every phrase bold, but they were also in the exact order as the excel list being used. I had also gone back and taken out most of the terms with commas.



However, when I ran the macro on a regular document, it had less than desirable effects. Many of the words were bolded, but some were only partially bolded. It also made many words bold that I would not have intended.


I think this is pretty good, though, and I will just have to play around with changing the list to remove words and phrases that are causing trouble, repetitive words in phrases and such.


Thank you both so much for your help. I've learned a great deal and I think I'm close to having a tool that will help me with productivity in the future.


With gratitude,
