Can you successfully modify the Table Grid style in another document? If so,
you could then use the Organizer (Tools | Templates and Add-Ins, Organizer
button) to copy it to the document where you are unable to modify it.

I created a table style based on Table Grid (Word 2003 SP3). I applied a
blue
font color to the header row. I also set the font, font size, and bold for
the header row. These settings are applied, but the header row color will
not
change no matter what I set the color to - it resets it to black every
time.
How can I get my style to accept blue for the header row color? Please
help.
TIA!
