Wonderful, Thank you both.


I got the macro to work well and I like it. Especially as my next project is to try to come to grips with macros. Would just be nice if I could do the whole document before firing the macro and it would copy all the selected (or highlighted?) sections.
So that if I found fifty such sections I wanted I'd save 49 keypresses there.


The copy/highlight method sounds good but I couldn't really get it working well. When I copy a doc and select it all then any attempt to touch the text switches off all the selection.


If you were meaning for me to change the colour of the text - and I guess you were - then it seems a long hassle for deselecting the colour each time. Kind of defeating the purpose which is to save on keystrokes.


But perhaps I've misunderstood that whole idea.
