Entering colored text

| In using FrontPage 2003 I have a need to enter the same text, "New", in
different colors - red, blue, green, yellow, etc. Obviously I could just
type in "New" and color it, but I'd like a quick way of doing this. Perhaps
a macro. Can anyone help?

| The place where I'm trying to do this is in a file (actually multiple files)
that were imported. The original tool used for the webpages did not use CSS.
I could activate CSS is that will make it easier. Help.

| CSS is not going to be a big help since there are no CSS tags associated with your content or the
specific Words.

| Use Code Snippets.
Add a new snippet: <span style="color:red">New</span>
or <span style="color:|">New</span>
When the second example is inserted, the curser will be positioned at the |
ready for the colour to be typed in.
and insert it on the page in Code View.
To add a snippet:
Tools->Page Options - Code Snippets tag
To insert a snippet:
In Code view (or code pane in Split View):
position curser
Ctrl+Enter
Double click on snippet in list.

| This is perhaps the most help, but it seems to me that this would be more
trouble than just typing "New", highlighting it and setting the color. Am I
wrong?

| You are not wrong, but that is the method to use, when using CSS.
