Sandhya: Please don't try to hijack other peoples' threads. I've moved your post from the other thread to this one.

The first post (above) has nothing to do with finding highlighted text. It simply removes highlighting - but you don't even need a macro for that.

As for finding highlighted text, you can do that via a simple Find operation, where 'Highlight' is specified as a Find parameter. If you want that for a macro, simply record the action with the macro recorder.
