A possibly simple way is to force the clear formatting by means of Ctrl+shift+spacebar As far as I know user created shortcuts, unlike ctrl+b or ctrl+i do not toggle between two states. Dan's suggestion to use a character style would work in the same way. Either you create another combination, say ctrl+shift+h to apply the default character style, or use again ctrl+shift+spacebar. An elegant alternative would be to write a macro which highlights the text if not highlighted and removes the highlight if highlighted and then associate the macro to ctrl+h. THis requires a bit of work (not more than 10 minutes for someone with basic experience of StarBasic.
