I want to replace black text with a different text of another colo

Is there a way to find a specific text string in a black text document and
replace it with something different in another color? For instance, find
"teh" in a document and replace it with "the" in red?

You can certainly find 'teh' and replace with 'the' in red, but finding it
in black maybe a problem as the default is more likely to be 'auto' than
black.

In the replace dialog, click more and set formatting against the replace
string.

The color of the original word isn't necessarily an issue. I just want to
replace in another color. That helped GREATLY, however.

Thankyou so much!
