I know there used to be a way to highlight text in a document or table like
you do in paper & pencil with a highlighter. I can't find it anywhere! I'm
using Word 2003.

Click to expand...
if you take your cursor, put it on the word and double
click it, the word will be hi-lited in black (the letters
will turn white). then go to the top of your screen and
click on the thing that looks like a pencil with a fat
colored line under it. if you don't have that icon you
can add it to your tool bar by going to
tools/customize/commands/format and click once on the
hilite command and drag it to where you want it on the
tool bar.

hope that helps

The Highlight icon is on the Formatting toolbar. You might not be able to
see it if both the Standard and Formatting toolbars are on the same row.
You can click the toolbar at the left hand edge, drag it down and over to
put them on two rows, or you can right-click the toolbar area, select
"Customize", and on the "Options" TAB click the "Show Standard and
Formatting toolbars on two rows" checkbox.
