Default Can't change the background in a table

Hi Barb

I have a table with cells that appear to have a background color applied to

Format - Borders and Shading - No Fill - Apply to Table

And NOTHING.

Suggestions?


The cells in question might contain an inline image.

Or (more likely) you are actually faced with a table within a table --
then the inner table has its own settings including B&S.

HTH
