Blocking out text in a table

[Lea78]

I'm creating a table and want to block out certain times (have them
permanently highlighted in black), but I'm not sure how to implement the
block out tool.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

The following will obliterate the text in the selected cell.

With Selection.Cells(1).Range
.Font.Color = wdColorBlack
.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor = wdColorBlack
End With

If you leave the Font Colour as Automatic (which is the default), it will
appear as white when you set the background colour to Black.
