atw: FrameMaker: Code syntax example in grey box

I have a FrameMaker formatting issue I hope I can get some help with.

 

I want to surround my code syntax examples with grey shading to make
them stand out, but I don't want to put the example in a single-row
table cell. Can anyone tell me how I'd define a character format or a
paragraph tag that surrounds the text with a grey shading? There has to
be a way to do it! We tried defining a graphic on the reference page and
using a negative offset, but that didn't work.

 

Any help appreciated! Thanks in advance.
