Help a new guy? Macro?

It is unfortunate that you can not put highlighting as a character style. For that you DO have to use a macro. However to do so is easy, and you can still assign a keyboard shortcut (say Ctrl-Q) to it.

Code:

 
Sub MyLotsOfFormat()
With Selection
    With .Font
        .Underline = wdUnderlineSingle
        .Bold = True
        .Italic = True
    End With
    .Range.HighlightColorIndex = wdBrightGreen
End With
End Sub

You can of course change the parameters like the underline characteristic and the highlight colour.
