Is it possible to write text cells where part of the string is
highlighted in red? If so, how can I do it?

I'm fairly sure the format of a cell applies to the whole content of
that cell - can you do what you're asking for in Excel or similar
yourself?  If not, then I very much doubt you can do it via
Spreadsheet::WriteExcel.

There is cell formatting and there is text formatting.
Each character can basically have its own background-color, foreground-color, font, font-weight, etc.

And beyond that, each cell can contain an object, like a Word-document.
But you don't need to go there to achieve what you want.

First find out how you would do it in its internal language (VB?),
and then port that.
