TextBox is the wrong control here I think.

I propose you use a Label control and replace each keyword with a highlighted keyword.
Start of by eg. making all keywords bold, or underlined by replacing 'keyword' with '< b >keyword< / b >' or '< u >keyword< / u >'.

If that works you can go more complex by using the HTML font tag and attributes eg. Don't know by heart if that (the font tag) allows changing the background though.

Hope this helps.
