I'm shading cells in a calendar template. In some cells the shading doesn't
fill to the bottom of the cell, a thin white strip remains. Similarly, in
some cells text is clipped off at the top. Top & bottom cell margins are set
to 0. How can I fix this?

When you apply the shading in the Format > Borders & Shading dialog,
make sure the Apply To box is set to "Cell" and not "Paragraph".
