Selecting area text for multiple fills

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi,

I've got around 100 fills that all have a very light shade of area text that is no longer showing up above my fills. So, I would like to select the area text of all these fills and change the colour to something darker. How do I do this without selecting each fill text and changing individually? I've tried selecting all fills and changing but it only opens up the properties box to change the properties of the fills, not the text.

Thanks

With all the Fills selected. Double click on the Text tool icon
(in the tool box palette) and it should bring up "Dimension Text Settings".
