I have a spreadsheet with conditional formatting where the background
of the cell is yellow until something is input.  Once input, the
background turns to white.  I use this to be able to visually verify
that important cells were not overlooked.  Within this spreadsheet I
have an embedded Word document containing form fields placed in a table
that I would like to have mimick the conditional formatting in the
spreadsheet.

Ideally, the shading on the form field would be yellow and that would
suffice.  I have not seen any new posts that provide a solution but any
thoughts welcome.  I have Word2003 SP2.
