Ever since I added a table of contents to my word document, all my endnote references are highlighted gray, as if I had selected them. Even if I quit and re-open the document, they still appear gray (this has happened to my page numbers as well, for some reason). I can’t figure out how to turn this off. Any ideas? It’s probably something simple… I hope so anyway!
This is a MS Word setting. Go to Tools, options, View tab (at least in word 2003 and previous, don’t know about word 2007) top section frar right, Field shading: you want it to be “When selected” as opposed to “Always”.
Thanks! Didn’t work exactly the same way (forgot to mention I’m on a mac), but I figured out how to translate it to my platform. Funny how the shading got turned on in the first place, since it had never happened before…
