Default Table Background Turns Blue

All of a sudden all my tables in a document will turn blue in the background
and I have to scrap the document. What gives?

What version of Word are you using and what are the steps you're following when this occurs.

Default Table Background Turns Blue

I am seeing my text turn blue as I type in a table in Word 2007. It darkens
to very dark blue so you cannot see what you're typing! Does not make sense.
Is there a way to change this?
Thank you

We are having this issue too. We have seen numerous posts on the Internet of
others with the same issue but no fix. We've tried using a new normal.dot
template in case our original one is fault (along with a range of other
attempted fixes) - however nothing solves this problem.

Is this a bug in Microsoft Word 2007?

This problem appears to be caused by the display driver, especially when
running under Vista. Check the website of the manufacturer of your display
card for updated drivers.

Thanks for your suggestion, however this issue appears both via Remote
Desktop and on the local PC's screen which would indicate it's not driver
related. Also, the PC having the fault runs Windows XP rather than Vista (and
it has a signed driver, and is patched right up to date).

Also, if we have open the document on completly computers we can replicate
the issue (on either XP or Vista). The issue occurs on the other computer
just for that file however, and not for new documents (unlike on the PC with
the issue where I understand it happens with any file).

How can we escalate this issue to get this bug fixed. How do we work around
it in the meantime?
