Well, the user is me, so I guess one person's bother is another's simplicity.
I envision a line containing text something like this or whatever is easy to read and easy to parse in the macro. I'd play with it a bit.
Code:
Parms: Col=3, Hdrs=0, RGB=215,199,244
For me, typing this once in the Word document is far easier that typing it in each time I call the macro. In the application at hand, I will be needing to re-highlight the table fairly often. With the parameters next to the table, I can do that with a single keyboard shortcut.
Also, if I had more than one table in the document, or even in different documents, the parameters would be set and could be different for each one.
If the macro doesn't find a line that has the right syntax, it would use the default values.
