Hi there,

I am working in Word 2007.
When I insert a table into the document and they try type in it, the block becomes "highlighted" with dark blue so you can't actually see what you are typing but it still allows you to enter text. You then have to select the whole table to remove the highlights before you can view the text.

I have checked all the settings to see that no colours are activated, there are no fill instructions and the table used is plain... :confused:

Please can anyone help with new suggestions.
Really apprecaited.

What about changing the default color for text in the table to something else? It sounds like your default color may match the highlight color...

If not, post up a sheet so we can see this in action.

Hi JB, thanks for the reply.

I have attached a doc for you to have a look at...

Thanks for the help.

Click on GO ADVANCED, use the paperclip icon, then BROWSE.

After selecting the file, be SURE you click on UPLOAD to get it attached.

BTW, I don't use Excel 2007, but I will take a look at your doc. Maybe it's something simple.

Hi,
Sorry, I hope I have attached the file properly now...

Guess it's something on your machine, the doc looks fine to me, same as all my tables ever look.

OK, great, thanks I appreciate you looking at it for me...

Don't have a clue what is going on, but shall persist.

Thanks again :)
