I have some bits of text with a grey background, conclusions from a document already published in EN. So I want to copy and paste the original, then reproduce the grey background, but I can't figure out how it's done. It's not in a box or a table, just has a grey background.
TIA:-)

If this is not the case and you have just text on grey background, which should be printed, select (mark) the text, which should appear on grey background, and use either your table tool bar (symbol for filling) or go to Format, Frames and shadowing and chose proper option there.
And once again - if you don't see something or can't find it, ask Word for help. Due to language differencies between my and yours Word (and the lack of knowledge on my side, how your Word behaves, which tool bars and buttons you have) it is impossible to tell you all steps in step-by-step order. Thank you.
