Re: Search highlight not working

Hello

I've just installed the evaluation version for Word/Outlook. When I search for a string (/sometest), nothing is highlighted. The cursor does move to the first found text and n goes to the next, etc. hlsearch is selected in options.

I'm using Office 2007 and ViEmu 2.5.4 on Win7.

How do I get highlighting to work?

Re: Search highlight not working

Hello Praful,

Sorry, hlsearch is not available under Word & Outlook. The reason is that Microsoft provides no way for add-ins to highlight text. Hopefully they will in the future (although I am not very optimistic in this regard).

Regards,
