Hello,

I'm trying to insert text boxes into a document. I have found how to add
them the problem is I'm getting a gray color behind them and can't find where
to get rid of it at. I have tried everything.

I knew how to do it in previous versions of word but not in 7. Can anyone
help, please and thank you!

Are you referring to the Check Box Form Field and Text Form Field controls
on the Legacy Forms palette (Legacy Tools on the Developer tab)? There is a
button on that palette to turn field shading off and on.
