    How can I highlight specified GROUPS of words (ie 2 or more words with spaces between them)

    ie GREEN APPLE
    RED GRAPE

    but not the individual words, if they do not appear as the above defined group

    ie NOT: GREEN or GREEN GRAPE etc

    BTW: I have about 500 such groups !!!

      It's not possible to specify terms/phrases for highlighting. NO SOLUTION OR WORKAROUND AVAILABLE!

        Thats IT... It cant be done... That's BS...
        Whats the point then... how weak.... you cant have a space...
        Whats the point then... This Programs seemed nice until this crap...
        You cant change the color for "User Password"
        with out changing it for user and password?

        That really cripples the progam... Thank god there is a 30 day trial.

          - My Excel doesn't print the bitmap-chart exactly how I positioned it.
          - The colors in Notepad are just gone
          - My Select in Winword just showed no result !

          Sorry dudes, maybe you use the wrong program for your scope. Don't blame UE. It's a programmers editor btw.
          (Yes I know, regexp in syntax coloring would be nice but slows down speed too much.)

          ONLY my opinion, pls don't feel defensive.

            Yeah but I can think of ton of times I would want to have a string highlighted... Why cant UE handle a string?

            "user password"

            ...should be handled I don't care what you say...

              So I guess in programming a space is not a valid character...
              Or maybe you wouldn't want a "string" highlighted while debugging a particular area...

                There's an editor out there called EditPad that uses Regexp for syntax highlighting. I haven't used it yet, but maybe it's the right one for GeoffD?

                  I sort of agree with GeoffD.
                  I am currently working on a wordlist for a language that uses a lot of 2-3 word command lines (Symposium script).
                  i.e. GIVE RINGBACK
                  GIVE CONTROLLED BROADCAST
                  ASSIGN TO

                  I would like to see all relevant words highlighted.
                  I shall check out editpad, although would much prefer to stay with ultraedit.
