You are welcome. It is not intuitive and I am far from an expert. I just push buttons until something happens.

So now I have a new problem. In having created exceptions for all of my content control boxes, everything is shaded oddly so that the information in some areas is unreadable. I can uncheck the "highlight fields I can edit" box but this apparently reverts automatically when the document is closed.

How can I permanently remove the form field shading from Word 2010's content controls, so that all users can just open the file and view it normally?
