how can I change Art text colour

[ceibach]

I know how to insert Word Art in Pub 2003 but am unable to change the font
colour.

I know how to do this with font in a text box but not with Word Art Please
can you help?

Select the WordArt, click the format WordArt (the icon with the bucket and brush), or
right-click, format WordArt...

Mary, Thank you for your reply.

I had already tried that, this will only allow me to change the FILL colour
and not the Text, everything else is greyed over.

Any other ideas?

The Fill colour changes the fill of the text.

The line colour changes the outline of the text.

Unless of course, you have inserted an old-style WordArt object, in which
case you have to double-click to edit the OLE object in order to change the
fill colour using the button that looks something like ['///,]

The WordArt toolbar has "edit text" if you are trying to change your text. I simply
don't know what else you are wanting to do. I have a short tutorial on my web site.
