Is there a plugin where you can highlight words in a blog post without going into the post?

I solved the problem. I first deleted the BuddyPress Default 1.1.2 theme, then deleted BuddyPress, then reinstalled BuddyPress, which gave me the new default theme, which has restored all the links and the admin toolbar.

I am one very happy and relieved man.

Thank you LPH2005 and paulhastings0 for your assistance; much obliged.
