Shortcut for font color?

[Murgi]

Either I am struggling with the MS Word terminology, or this function is lackingc

Well, I did a large translation a year ago. Now I have been asked by the
client to make changes to the existing text, and translate new text within
paragraphs, etc.
The client wants to see these changed and new parts in RED. I can do that
by selecting the color and then type along. However, there should be a way
to do that once only and not hundreds of times. Anything I type within the
black text shall appear in red. Changing the default color in Fonts will
turn the entire text redc
I tried to assign a shortcut for a particular font color, but I see no way
to do that.

Has anybody ever done that?

Best regards,
Murgi

Use Track Changes. If you cannot set the option of the inserted font color
via Tools>Options>Track Changes, run a macro with the command:

Options.InsertedTextColor=wdRed
