I would like to make potential homonyms appear in a different color font the
way possible spelling errors and grammatical errors do. Does anyone have any
idea on how to do that. I have a list of homonyms.
 
Well, spelling errors only appear in a different color when you are actually
running spellcheck. In Tools | Options, Spelling &Grammar, click on
Settings and you should be able to tell Word to flag "commonly confused
words" which might catch your homonyms.

Alternatively, you can tell "check spelling as you type" to flag homonyms
with the red underline by adding these words to your exclude dictionary
(Running spellcheck will also catch them as errors with this method) For
directions on creating one, see here:
