hyperlinks in printed WORD docs: aftershocks

["Benzi Schreiber" <benzi -at- tradeum -dot- com>]

And I thought I had it licked....

The solution described below works in some documents, but not in others. In
some of my docs, setting the field shading to "Always" has no effect; you
see no shading.

Anyone ideas why not?

(Why should life be simple? :-))  )

Thanks

Benzi
