Does anyone know if you can have more than 1 highlight icons in the same
document but each with a different colour e.g. one green and one yellow?

Hello Sarina-

The buttons are all instances of the same object associated with a specific
feature, so I don't think that is possible. You may be able to design your
own buttons if you are a fairly talented VBA coder.

Good Luck |:)

You don't have to be that talented. I did it (I think. Maybe I borrowed it
from someone). Not saying this is the best way, but this works for me.

Assign this macro to a toolbar button, then select text, hit the button, and
get pink highlight. Obviously you will need to change the color name. You
may need to do some macro recording to get the right name for the color.

Options.DefaultHighlightColorIndex = wdPink
Selection.Range.HighlightColorIndex = wdPink
