1. Open Microsoft Word: Launch the application and open the document you want to edit.

2. Go to the Home Tab: In the Word ribbon at the top, click on the "Home" tab.

3. Find the Text Highlight Color Icon: In the "Font" group, you will see an icon that looks like a marker highlighting text. Click the arrow next to it.
