Can i use the Word COM API or VBA macro to read and update formatting data
such as font colour on individual colours?

TIA

I am trying the follwowing code in C#. Range is a Word.Range object filtered
using Range.Find. I am trying to loop through a document changing the RGB
color of the font to another colour. I get either a "Server has thrown an
exception" or value is out of range for this property exception. Has anyone
has any luck changing the colour?

range.Font.Color = (Word.WdColor)65280

there are numerous wdColor constants you can use, or just go fully
custom with (VBA)

Range.Font.Color=RGB(62,25,25)
