Default How do I change the default selected-text-highlight colour?

HI,
I'm using WORD 07 on a Dell LCD monitor. The default selected-text-highlight
colour appears as a barely-visible light blue.

I would like to change that colour to something more visible, especially
when I do a FIND/REPLACE, perhaps even a bright yellow or red.

Can anyone point me to the option to change the default select text colour?

Thanks in advance,
David

As far as I know, you have no control over this - sorry.

Tony,

Thanks for the 'impossible' reply, but isn't there a system setting
somewhere that I can change? Something somewhere determines the colour no?
