Iam pretty sure this will solve your problem. If you dont have the drawing
toolbar on the bottom of your screen then go to to tools,options,toolbars and
check drawing toolbar Then click on the A symbol that says "word art" This
gives you some nice styles and two are transparent. Then to fill it with
color. Go to fill effects (to the left of the pencil symbol on the drawing
toolbar).on the drawing toolbar and click the arrow next to it. A pallete of
color will come up. You can also select more fill effects by selecting fill
effects from the color pallete. I think this will do the trick. Let me know
how it worked. You can also draw shapes with autoshapes and color them this
way
Best regsrds,
