Thanks to Steve Hudson:

1) Create a brand-new doc.

2) Copy and paste into it everything but the last paragraph tag.

Voila! Except, the pages don't break in the same places any more, even
though I have set the correct custom page size and margins, but that's
not my problem. ;?P

Cheers,

Sean

I have a word table in which the rows are alternately shaded. The edges
of the cells in shaded rows are messed up, with the shading seeming to
narrow down to the height of the text in the cell and not the entire
cell height.

Anyone know what Word is doing for table row shading, what the issue is,
and how to fix the issue (and keep the row shaded ;?).

Checkout the second table on this sample to see what I'm on about:
