White space around text in table cell
Your paragraph might have a different shading color than your table cells.
In a table cell, right click and select "Borders and Shading...". In the
dialog, on the "Shading" tab, you can set a fill color. At the right you
will see a drop down menu indicating to which the shading should be applied:
table, cell, or paragraph. You can play around with it to see the effects.

I want to fill cells in a table with color. Generally I can do this easily.
However, I have a table that must have something defined that I can't
detect.
When I try to fill the cell with color, the cell only fills around the
edges,
leaving the center portion white. The part that is colored is not the cell
borders. I can fix this by re-establishing the text as "normal" and then
making it the font/size I want. However, I'm curious about how this
anomaly
happened so I don't accidentally create this problem again. Does anyone
know
why this happened?
