For each oSheet1 in oExcel.Sheets
	
	oSheet1.Activate()
	
	
	For iRow = 1 to 99 
		if ( find(oSheet1.cells[iRow][2].text,"Base") > -1 ) Then
			iStartRow = iRow
			Exit for
		end If
	NExt

		if ( oSheet1.cells[iRow][2].text = "" ) Then
			iLastRow = iRow
			Exit for
		end If
	NExt
	
	
	For iRow = iStartRow to iLastRow
	
		For iCol = 3 to iLastCol
	
			If ( find(oSheet1.cells[iRow][iCol].text,"A") > -1 ) Then
				' VBA to color a cell
				oSheet1.cells[iRow][iCol].Interior.Color = RGB(0, 0, 250)
				oSheet1.cells[iRow][iCol].Font.Color  = RGB(255, 255, 255)
