Highlighting in CRichEditView

I need to highlight a set of strings in the CRichEditView window. I am
using CRichEditCtrl::SetSel but it removes the highlight, when I
click on a window or when I select another string for highlighing. 

How can I highlight, multiple occurance of a string in the window?

How can this be sticky (I need the highlighting to stay even after
the window looses focus)? 

In nutshell, I need the same functionality like Microsoft Developer
Studio Search/Query option. When you query on a given string, the "Query
String" appears highlighted in the Document Viewer (InfoViewer Topic
window). 

Is there any example to make this work?

You can change text/bacjground color of the text you want to highlight.

Hope this helps.

How do you change the background of a single word without changing the
background of the whole RichEditControl?
