That "feature" is determined by the Operating system. You may use 3rd
party utility/addons to achieve this. It isn't under Office control.

I mean in Office under my documents etc - this is from an administrator
perspective, I'm not a techo, but as I have lots of word and excel &
publisher stuff at work it would be good to be able to distinguish with
colour or font. Keep us people on the ground happy!!

It sounds as tho you need a better file management system. With proper/more
specific naming of your folders, you won't need colors. Think about how you
would organize a filing cabinet with manila folders and white labels - take
it from there.

Doctors use a color coded file system in their offices...I change the color
of my folders to make specific folders standout instead of having read
folder names I can simply click on the colored folder I want...

Life would be easier if we could view the source code

I have so many folders and subfolders that I'd never remember what a color
meant and would end up reading the name anyway. Different strokes. :)
