I accomplished this by creating to macros(using the macro record functionality); one to add a yellow highlight to selected text, the other to remove it. I then added keyboard shortcuts to both macros (ensuring the openoffice.org radio button is selected). Macros are almost at the bottom of the category list. In my case I use Ctrl-H to add the highlight and Ctrl-Shift-H to remove it.
