Very nice, thank you! I have two questions, please...

1. how can I use RGB colors for highlighting? I tried using "Options.DefaultHighlightColorIndex = RGB(190, 190, 190)" but without any success;

2. how can I add an extra condition to the find function so that it will only find (and highlight) those keywords that have not already been highlighted? I tried using ".Font.HighlightColorIndex = wdNoHighlight", but once again, without any results. I am trying to avoid double-highlighting, as for example when I want to highlight keyword "great music" in green and keyword "music" in red. Without a stop in place, you would get "great" highlighted in green, and "music" in red. I'd like both words ("great music") to be shown in green, as a single keyword.
