To record a macro that sets text colors, just follow these steps: It may be better to use shortcut keys such as Shift+Alt+G, Shift+Alt+G, and Shift+Alt+Y. You can do this, but it may conflict with other uses of the Alt key (like accessing the ribbon tools from the keyboard). Gillian suggests using Alt+G, Alt+B, and Alt+Y. Before doing so, however, you'll need to figure out what shortcut keys you want to use.
Yes, it is possible, but you'll need to use a macro to do the work. She would, therefore, like to be able to create multiple keyboard shortcuts to highlight in different colors once she has selected text (e.g., Alt+G for green, Alt+B for blue, and Alt+Y for yellow). As an editor, Gillian likes to color-code sections of text for authors.
