Neil M has come up with the VB goods for turning field shading on and off via macro.
Cheers, Terry ----- Forwarded message from Neil M -----If you'd like to post it to the forum, a VB control for field shading (for Word 2003) is:
MyFieldShading = ActiveDocument.ActiveWindow.View.FieldShading ActiveDocument.ActiveWindow.View.FieldShading = wdFieldShadingNeverThe "wdFieldShadingNever" can be replaced with a number, or text can be used, the options are as follows
Never = 0 (WdFieldShadingNever) Always = 1 (WdFieldShadingAlways) When selected = 2 (WdFieldShadingWhenSelected) Cheers, Neil. ----- End forwarded message -----
