Thanks, Bob. Regarding other functionalities I would request:
Extract all text with (1) a specific color or (2) a specific font (3)
underlines. For example, if one highlights in red, then she would like to
extract all texts in red. Occasionally she might use more than one colors,
and each color bears its own implication. Thanks!

John
