Hi Whisper,
I reset the QAT and it cleared the problem, but like you I am used to the
shortcuts and will start adding them again. Because of the problem returning
to your system, I can only assume the there is a conflict with one or more
short-cuts, or the quantity added... I had quite a few. I like the new Word,
but really liked the toolbars in Word 2003 much better, thet were so easy and
quick to use!!
Thanks again and I will post what happens as I start to add short-cuts again.

I apologize for the delay in responding to everyone... I lost my father this
last week and things have been very hectic.

I will try to post soon...

Thanks again for everyone's support,
Koja

JT, yesterday the problem seemed to be solved, but I'm working in another
table today and the problem has returned. I did re-customize my Quick Access
toolbar. I'll re-set it AGAIN, but I simply must have my shortcuts !! Why
click 3 times when I can click 1 time? I'm wondering if Koja ended up with
the same problem after she reset her QAT?

Thanks for any help, Whisper

Sorry if you already answered that Koja, I think I was looking at an old
reply.

-OK, click on the little pull down menu for the Quick Access Toolbar
-choose more commands
-on the right under your toolbar window, click the reset button (this will
undo all of your cutomization, sorry)
-click ok.
-make sure the Quick Access Toolbar has only the 3 (I think its 3) default
icons
-exit word, reopen word
-create a new table as a test, and try to get it to darken the cells again.

Let me know what happens!
