Hi:
I have just spent several hours working out how to format numerical fields
coming from Excel so I can report scores on exams. (i.e, adding  \##0.0 to
the
field code to round to one decimal).

However, all fields I import end up with a grey highlight.  This prints out
onto the final word document.

I cannot find how to insert a field without this background and I can't get
rid of it using anything I can find in the Format area including borders and
shading in Word.

Does anyone have a solution?

Thank you

The shading applied to fields doesn't print - unless you apply shading to
it. It is controlled by tools > options > view
