do u want to highlight by some colour??? then i dont know the answer.....i have to search for that...

otherwise by highlight if you mean to just select the specified letter then i have some solution........

if you store your word in a TextBox then you can use SelectionStart ans SelectionLength property of a textbox to highlight (not by colour)your text.....

SelectionStart Gets or sets a character index for the beginning of the current selection.

SelectionLength Gets or sets a value indicating the number of characters in the current selection in the TextBox
