There's no easy way to do this. In order to control the background of a
specific word in a phrase, you'd need to use an RTF control, and you'd need
to programmatically reformat the text so that the specific word was
formatted differently from the rest of the text.

How can I cause the results of a query to show the searched-string with,
say, a yellow background so the reader can easily find the reason why that
record appeared in the report itself?
