Hi there
I was thinking if it is text on a page, you might declare a new style
for each release and apply it to the text.
When the new version arrives, just configure the new style with no
shading so the highlights disappear. Then declare yet another new style
and apply the shading to it.
Style names might reflect the release.
R1
R2
R3 and so on.
I suppose this may result in an eventual buildup of styles in the style
sheet. Depends on how often you update.
Just pondering out loud... Rick :)
