Mark, Haven't done any programming with Word. But I did a lookup on Word Object Model and found http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa195382(office.10).aspx and there is a reference to Property Highlight .Highlight I'm looking at the Microsoft Word Visual basic reference. Here's some sample stuff in the area: ------------------------------------------------------------------ from M$ stuff ----------------- Highlight Property Find object: True if highlight formatting is included in the find criteria. Can return or be set to True, False, or wdUndefined. Read/write Long. Note The wdUndefined value can be used with the Find object to ignore the state of highlight formatting in the selection or range that is searched. Replacement object: True if highlight formatting is applied to the replacement text. Can return or be set to True, False, or wdUndefined. Read/write Long. Example This example finds all instances of highlighted text in the active document and removes the highlight formatting by setting the Highlight property of the Replacement object to False. Dim rngTemp As Range Set rngTemp = ActiveDocument.Range(Start:=0, End:=0) With rngTemp.Find .ClearFormatting .Highlight = True With .Replacement .ClearFormatting .Highlight = False End With .Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll, Forward:=True, FindText:="", _ ReplaceWith:="", Format:=True End With This example applies highlight formatting to the next instance of bold text in the active document. With Selection.Find .ClearFormatting .Font.Bold = True With .Replacement .ClearFormatting .Highlight = True End With .Execute Forward:=True, FindText:="", ReplaceWith:="", _ Format:=True End With ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------- Jack -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Mark A Matte Sent: Friday, April 11, 2008 4:04 PM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: [AccessD] OLE Word Doc Font Hello All, I am working with OLE MSWord Object on an access form. I'm trying to play with the font...'highlighting' specifically. I can change the size,color,bold...and stuff but looking for highlighting. There does not seem to be intellisense for these properties on my maching. Any thoughts? Thanks, Mark A.
