CTRL-A F9 causes contents of file to be shaded like a field

If I select all and hit f9 to update the document, the entire file
becomes shaded like it's a field. If I turn off field shading then the
shading disappears.

This happens in Word 2007 or Word 2003 with compatibility mode in
Windows XP. I'm at a loss. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Of course, I figure this out after I post. Sorry. It has something to
do with cross references--when I remove a section with several cross
references, this problem disappears. I think the x-refs were added to
show all text instead of just the label/number. Thanks.
