Color my Word

[Suzanne McBride]

This should seem easy, but it's not happening for me: My end users want to select a word and have it display in a particular color of their choosing. I visualize them clicking a button to open the color palette, settling on the intended shade, then clicking a word in their field to set it to that color.  I may be getting the syntax wrong when I try to use menuPick, since setting the word to the Pen Color involves the Color submenu under Text.  Has anyone done this kind of thing? Maybe without menuPick? Thanks, Suzanne
