#Highlight colors in word full#
Full credit goes to the macro author ‘nixda’. Here’s my version of that macro in case it ever disappears from the intertubes at that website.
Meantime, I modified the first macro to NOT accept all the track changes and to change the highlight colour to pink instead of the dark green. I ‘killed’ Word and decided to only go back to that one if I couldn’t make the modifications I wanted to the first one. Whatever, it had stopped Word and I had ‘not responding’ in the title bar. The second was either still going after an hour, or had hung. I tested them both on an 80p Word document with some 1450 revisions - the first one worked well and quickly (less than 1 minute), but accepted all my track changes and applied a dark green highlight, which I found hard to read. (NOTE: This macro only highlights insertions you could probably modify it to do deletions too, but see below for why I didn’t continue with this one.).I’m not good at writing macros, but I’m pretty good at finding them! And then at modifying them for my purposes. Well, tracked changes are already shown in a different font colour and formatted with underlines (insertions) or strikethroughs (deletions) by default, but she wanted more.Īs she found, find and replace didn’t work with finding tracked changes. Over on an editors’ group I’m part of on Facebook, Wendy asked if there was a way to highlight all her tracked changes.
