Can you automatically shade every other row in a Word table?

I have a table in Word that has every other row shaded for easier reading and
whenever the author wants to move rows, I end up spending most of my time
shading and unshading every row one at a time. Is there a way to
automatically set up my table so that every other row is shaded?

If you have Word 2002 or 2003, you can define a table style with alternate
rows shaded, and the shading will update automatically when you add or
delete rows. I believe this may also be true if you apply a shaded-row Table
AutoFormat in Word 2000.
