I haven't tried this in quite a while, and subsequently have forgotten how to
do this. I have a contract created in Word. I want to highlight the areas
(spaces) in the contract so that whoever is filling in the contract, will
know where they have to add information. I don't want the highlighting to
show on the printed copy (and I don't want the person filling it out to have
to remove all the highlighting). If memory serves me, there was also a way
to jump from highlighted field to highlighted field. On a 25 or 30 page
contract, it makes it easy for the "novice" to fill in a contract without
missing something.

Any help will be appreciated!
