Date in word documents highlighted

[Mel]

In my Word documents the date is highlighted in gray. How do I get rid of
the gray?

This shading is merely an indication that the date is inserted by a field -
you can control the shading from tools > options > view. May I suggest you
change it to 'When selected'.
