VBA Remove specific colour highlight

Shelley Lou · #1 11-13-2024, 09:18 AM

I found the code below searching through this forum that Greg Maxey created to remove specific colour highlighting. I'm trying to update the code to remove both BrightGreen and Pink highlighting within a document. It seems to be working ok but just wanted to make sure I've added to the code correctly? Thanks.

Code:

Sub ScratchMacro()
'A basic Word Macro coded by Gregory K. Maxey
Dim oRng As Range
Dim oChr As Range
  Set oRng = ActiveDocument.Range
  With oRng.Find
    .Highlight = True
    While .Execute
      Select Case oRng.HighlightColorIndex
        Case Is = 9999999
          For Each oChr In oRng.Characters
            If oChr.HighlightColorIndex = wdBrightGreen Then
              oChr.HighlightColorIndex = wdAuto
            End If
          'Next
          If oChr.HighlightColorIndex = wdPink Then
              oChr.HighlightColorIndex = wdAuto
            End If
          Next
        Case Is = wdBrightGreen
          oRng.HighlightColorIndex = wdAuto
Case Is = wdPink
          oRng.HighlightColorIndex = wdAuto
      End Select
      oRng.Collapse wdCollapseEnd
    Wend
  End With
lbl_Exit:
  Exit Sub
End Sub
