Form Field Background
Word 2000.....on several existing documents when inserting a form field the
background of the form field remains white. If I turn the paragraph marker on then 5 circles appear indicating where the form field is. If I insert a form field on any new documents then the background on the form field is displayed with its normal gray background. What needs to be done with these other documents so the form field background is diplayed as its normal gray? |

Form Field Background
With the form unprotected, click on the Form Field Shading button on the
Forms toolbar. -- Suzanne S.

Form Field Background
Thank you Suzanne. The Field Shading button was missing from my toolbar.
Things were easy after I added it! "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: With the form unprotected, click on the Form Field Shading button on the Forms toolbar. -- Suzanne S.
