Hello, It is actually quite difficult to figure out what happened. At the beginning I thought you had some fields in the table (they are shown with a grey background) but when you select a field it becomes black not dark grey as you wrote. It may be that your tables default to a light grey background, but this does not explain why you do not see the same background in MS Word. A good starting point could be to be able to try to open the document on my machine. If the problem is specific to that particular document, and such document does not contain confidential information, could you send it to me or make it available somewhere where it can be downloaded (the list does not accept attachments)?
