Hi Yamaha Rider,

Try:

Code:

Sub Demo()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim Rng As Range
With ActiveDocument.Range
  With .Find
    .ClearFormatting
    .Text = "gopost`"
    .Replacement.Text = ""
    .Forward = True
    .Wrap = wdFindStop
    .Format = True
    .MatchCase = False
    .MatchWholeWord = False
    .MatchWildcards = False
    .MatchSoundsLike = False
    .MatchAllWordForms = False
    .Execute
  End With
  Do While .Find.Found
    .Font.Bold = True
    .Font.Color = wdColorRed
    Set Rng = .Duplicate
    Rng.Start = Rng.Start + 2
    Rng.End = Rng.End - 1
    Rng.Font.Color = 5296274
    .Collapse wdCollapseEnd
    .Find.Execute
  Loop
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
