Default Text colour change in citations

Hey there,

I'm trying to change the text colour of citations in Word 2007 so that they
'jump out of the page' when i'm scanning my work.
Is there any way to do this automatically rather than just manually changing
the colour of each citation in the document?

Thanks for your help

Default Text colour change in citations

If the citations have a specific paragraph or character style, you can
(temporarily) modify the font color of that style.

If the OP is talking about the Word 2007 citation field then he will
have to do it manually (only once per citation though).

Citation fields 'inherit' the style used by their surrounding text.
They do not have a style of their own by default. You can of course,
whenever you add a citation, apply a certain character style to them.
That style will remain, even after field updates.
