Norma_Snockurs Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 In Mac OS X go to System Preferences/Appearance and change Highlight Color to one of your choice. Easy, although this is a system-wide preference. In Windows XP if you right-click on the Desktop, select Properties, select Appearance tab, click Advanced, from the 'Item:' menu choose 'Selected Items' and pick your preferred color there, it seems to change the highlight color everywhere but for selected text in applications. Very frustrating. I think it may only be possible by editing the registry. Someone may well have written a utility that does this but I don't know.
