I have a Visio Professional 2002 diagram that I am inserting as a
linked object into a Word 2002 SP3 document. For some reason the
background shows as gray in Word although it prints out clear.
(Format Object shows Fill as None).

Is there some setting in either Visio or Word that I can change to
make it display in Word with either a transparent or white background
?

My interim solution is to put a white rectangle behind the diagram in
Visio but this then obscures the guidelines when I'm editing the
document and seems a rather clunky solution.

Any help would be much appreciated.
