Word 2007 - remove gray from form fields
Word 2007
Vista Enterprise Where in Word 2007 is the setting (if any??) for toggling the gray highlight/background in form fields. Thanks very much. (I just found that I had written a macro to do this a long time ago in Word 2003 and it still works. But where is the explicit setting in Word itself?) |

Word 2007 - remove gray from form fields
Assuming you have the Developer tab enabled, the Form Field Shading button
is one of the Legacy Forms tools in the Legacy Tools palette (in the Controls group on the Developer tab). -- Suzanne S.

Word 2007 - remove gray from form fields
Thanks.
I also finally found the place in 2007 itself to change the setting: Office button Word Options Advanced "Show document content" subsection Field shading. On Dec 9, 3:41*pm, "Suzanne S.

Word 2007 - remove gray from form fields
That's actually a different control--applies to all fields rather than just
form fields. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "wal" wrote in message ... Thanks.

Word 2007 - remove gray from form fields
You're right. Thanks. My original question was incorrectly worded.
I was looking for just "fields". Well, at least there's a single string with both solutions now. On Dec 10, 10:26*am, "Suzanne S.
