I have a form with multiple fields that I need people to fill out and then
send out to customers. Is there a way to have the shaded fields "lose" their
shading after the field has been completed? (The idea being that the people
completing the form need to know where to fill in the fields but when the
form is then sent to customers I don't want them to see that there are fields)

Thank you.

Send it as a pdf.

Hi ?B?Y2hhc2lkYQ==?=,

I have a form with multiple fields that I need people to fill out and then
send out to customers. Is there a way to have the shaded fields "lose" their
shading after the field has been completed? (The idea being that the people
completing the form need to know where to fill in the fields but when the
form is then sent to customers I don't want them to see that there are fields)

No way to do this with individual fields (unless you put a box with a colored
fill behind them and use macros to make the changes).

A simple click on the field shading button in the Forms toolbar will remove the
shading from behind ALL the fields, though.
