highlighting numerous words
There is a really quick and easy way to find and highlight words using Find
and Replace and the highlighter button in Word 2003. But I have forgotten how to do it! Can anyone remind me? -- Many thanks JD |

highlighting numerous words
Using the Find dialog (not Replace), check the box for "Highlight all items
found." In this case, Word is using "highlight" to mean "select." Once the text is selected, you'll still have to apply the highlighting yourself. -- Suzanne S.

Jackie D,
Go to Edit - search- in the search for field type your word - click the checkbox to the left that allows you to highlight the words found - click on search all button. Does this do it for you.
