in Word, is there some way I can add multiple highlight buttons, so I always
display three highlight colors at the same time (eaiser than having to use
the pull down to get a new color)
 
No. You can add multiple buttons, but they will all have the same highlight
color; you can't have more than one color selected as the default.

sorta, you can make your own buttons and link em to your own macros
that read something like

Public Sub SelectionHighlightBrightGreen
Selection.Range.HighlightColorIndex=wdBrightGreen
End Sub

Advanced Word VBA users can use the parameter of the button to hold
the value and read that from the one sub, but please try to crawl,
then walk before running. Otherwise you end up with a bloody nose and
epithets ending in my name.
