Dear All

Is it possible to shade words/areas in a word document, but to set the print options so that when printing the shading remains on screen but is removed from the printed document. I use Word 2000 at present.

Thanks very much
JC

You can apply highlighting to text instead of shading. The display of
highlighting can be toggled on the View tab of Tools | Options, and when it
is not displayed, it doesn't print, either. This may not meet your needs,
however.

Another approach would be to apply the shading with a character style. The
character style can be toggled between having and not having shading; the
toggle could be programmed as a macro that would allow you to click a button
or press a keyboard shortcut to apply or remove the shading.
