Default Automating color on specific text.

You can use Find and Replace to change the font color. Using wildcards, you
can do more than one number at a time.


Thanks for the reply. Could you be a bit more specific as to how
that is done? I don't seem to see a color option among the ones
shown.

Hi,

I have many lists of numbers typed into a Word 2000 document.
Each specific number needs to be one of 3 colors (Red, Black
or Green). So, what I what I would like to do is find a way to
use something like a "search and replace" to alter some of
the current numbers, which are all Black, and change them to
either Red or Green depending on the specific number.

Very, very tedious to do them by hand.

E.g. 1 2 3 4 5 6 - the 1, 3, 5 need to be red.

Doable? How?


Thanks.
