When I add page numbers to a word 2002 document, the page number is shaded in
dark grey and I can't remove the shading. This is not dimmed like in print
layout view. There is actual shading. Ironically, a document I have been
using for a few years has an embedded excel table in it. The last time I
opened that document, the table was also shaded in the dark gray. It's like
the shading is in the background and I can't get rid of it. As I am a
technical writer, this is causing me great problems.
