Default Remove Highlighting From a Style

If you used the Text Highlight command to remove the highlight then I'd say
it isn't in the style but it was applied as a direct format. If you apply
the style to other text does the highlight appear? If not then you can
either select the entire document and remove the highlight or if you need to
confine the replacement to a specific style then you can use Find/Replace to
remove it:

- Select None from the Highlight command
- Press F5 to display the Find/Replace dialog box
- Click the Replace tab
- Click the More button
- Place your insertion point in the Find text box
- Click the Format button and then click Highlight
- Click the Format button and then click Style
- Select your Style and then click OK.
- Place your insertion point in the Replace text box
- Click the Format button and then click Highlight
- Click Replace All

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email cannot be acknowledged.

I have a complicated Doc a previous collegue produced, and it has text
field
that automatically applies grey highlight . I traced it to a Style
through
the Reveal Formatting command and can apply "None" highlighting for each
paragraph manually, but would like to modify the Style it's associated
with,
but can't find where. It's not in the shading area. Help Please?
