black band across page
Word 2002
Whenever a colleague types in a particular document, a black band appears over his text, right across the page. This only happens when he's in Print Layout view and it doesn't print. We've tried all the obvious formatting options but nothing appears wrong. Any suggestions would be very welcome -- Linda M |

It could be a corrupt doc.
Safest thing to try first is copy all but the last ¶, paste into a new blank doc & see if the problem persists in the new one.

Thanks, Taz
Interestingly, when I opened the document on my PC, there was no problem. So I guess it's a hardware problem -- Linda M "CyberTaz" wrote: It could be a corrupt doc.

This could be an indication of an inadequate display driver. See if there's
an update available and/or reduce hardware acceleration to the display. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org LindaM wrote: Word 2002 Whenever a colleague types in a particular document, a black band appears over his text, right across the page.

My OfficeXp have the sme problem.
In my computer, there are two user accounts, say Alice and Bob. Alice encountered the same problem as LindaM, but Bob had no problem at all. So I think that it is not a hardware problem but a word setting problem. But I can't figure out how to fix it. "LindaM" wrote: Thank you all. -- Linda M "Suzanne S.

Did you check the color depth settings in Windows for the two users
(Method 3 in the article Suzanne cited)? Each account can have a different setting. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
