Export of text with markup to MS-Word loses highlights

I'm trying out the feature of text boxes where you can add fonts and colors.  Here's an example:

 

tb1 = text box("\[The <B><FONT color="blue">quick</FONT></B> brown fox jumped over the lazy dog]\", << markup(1));
tb2 = text box("\[Hello <B><FONT color="red">world</FONT></B> I want to go home]\", << markup(1));
tb3 = text box("\[This will be the <B><FONT color="yellow">last time</FONT></B>]\", << markup(1));

cb = col box("Text Search Results");
cb << append(tb1);
cb << append(tb2);
cb << append(tb3);

nw = new window("Test markup",
 highlight_output = vlistbox(
  tb = table box(
   sb = string col box("Item Number", {"aaa", "bbb", "ccc"}),
   cb,
  )
 )
);
highlight_output << save msword("c:\temp\testcolors.doc", Native);

This yields nice looking output:

 

However the MS Word file is showing the raw commands, not the highlighted text:

It would be great for the Word output to match the JMP output.  Don't know if it's too late to get this into version 16???

I'm happy to report that this will be fixed in JMP 16. Here is a preview:

Thanks Paul.  I have JMP 16EA V7 and the colors work but you lose the bolding.  Italics and underline work however.

Re: Export of text with markup to MS-Word loses highlights

Thanks for the information. I'll take a look. I see that if I copy the text from JMP and paste it into Word, then the bolding is honored. Not sure why it is being lost in the export to Word.
