"Text Markers?"   
I received via email a table that I'm trying to duplicate; however, there is 
one formatting issue that puzzles me.  Certain cells in the original document 
contain grey areas where text must be entered; can anyone tell me how to 
repeat this formatting option in my table?

RE: "Text Markers?"   
The gray areas are most likely form fields or MacroButton fields. If you 
toggle field codes (Alt+F9), fields appear as code within curly brackets 
(press Alt+F9 to display the field results again). The first word within the 
field brackets shows the type of field.

For information about creating forms, see:

For information about creating MacroButton fields, see:

RE: "Text Markers?"   
Thanks for your quick respsponse Lene, however, the received document appears 
to have restricted access and the Alt+F9 option does not work.  I will review 
the two links you provided for additional help.

Thanks again,

Bob

RE: "Text Markers?"   
The restricted access indicates that the document has been protected (most 
likely because the fields are form fields – and a document must be protected 
for forms in order for the form fields to work). I think you will find the 
information you need via the first article I referred to in the previous post.
