Default Display selected text as white text with black highlight?

In Office 2007, selected text is displayed as black text with a light blue
highlighter effect as the default. Is there a way to change this preference
so that selected text displays as white text with a black highlighter effect,
as in previous versions of Word?


Sorry, David, you're sadly mistaken. The blue selection highlight is
neither a default nor a preference. It's a hard-coded
like-it-or-lump-it. Many of us don't like it. You ought to rephrase
your post as a "suggestion to Microsoft" that may be considered for
the next version.
