WD2000: Field Shading Appears Split by Inline Object (211531)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Word 2000
This article was previously published under Q211531

SYMPTOMS

If you cross-reference text containing an inline object, the field shading for the cross-reference field may appear as though there are two individually shaded fields separated by an unshaded inline object. That is, the inline object may appear to break up the field shading.

RESOLUTION

This is display behavior only, and it does not affect the functionality of the field.

MORE INFORMATION

Field shading is a display option that will shade the entire field when the insertion point is anywhere in the field. To turn this setting on or off, follow these steps:
  1. On the Tools menu, click Options.
  2. Click the View tab.
  3. Change the Field shading box to the setting that you prefer: When selected, Always, or Never.
