Hello,
I have a list of about 200 phrases and words (common technical writing
errors not found in default Word grammer/style checker). How can quickly
find and highlight the occurences of the words/phrases in a document without
tediously using the find/replace function 200 times? I prefer a macro-free
method if availabe, since I know little about macros.
Another possible route: is there any way to customize the style checker
feature of the grammar checker, i.e., add phrases that Word search for which
it offers suggestions. There's gotta be some file that has a list the Word
uses.
I found a script for a macro on the internet, but, for example, for the
phrase "on behalf of" it would highlight every single occurrence of "on" and
"of" instead of requiring the phrase:

Thanks!
