Macro To Identify & Highlight Words In MS Word Based Upon A List In Excel File Column

[abhimanyu]

Hi,
I am a writer and I have a list of words in Excel (adverbs, prepositions, cliches etc) that need to be identified and highlighted as I write in Word so I can edit them out when necessary.

I was looking for a solution and I was told the best one was a suitable Macros.

The Macros code for a very similar problem (identifying and replacing instead of identifying and highlighting) was given on a different thread, so I was hoping I could also get the code for a Macros that did the job I wanted.

Also, I searched for such a macros on other threads, but couldn't locate it. So if the answer has already been given elsewhere, I will be glad if I could be pointed to that thread.




Thanks in advance
