Custom render for some format of text

Question

Hi
 I would like to write add in for word, to render text custom format.
For example, if the word document contains some key words, I will have to make/display
highlighted or CLICKABLE
without changing the word contents. Basically I wanted to change the word (override render engine), I'm new to office development, can someone shade some light on this.
When the user open the document, I want highlight the pre-defind texts without changing the content. User should not be prompted for save when he closes the document.

Hi Bala,
Base on my test, I find for the Find and Replacement method, it needs to change
HighlightColorIndex value and the current document will be changed. (it will prompts the save window)
I don’t find a way to highlight word without change, I think you could highlight the word in
Open event and clear highlight in
Close event.
To deal with the save prompt window, you could set
Saved property to true.
There are some links that can help you:
