How to get more color fills

[Leon]

I created a table in Word 97, and I want to color the cells in the table.
This seems can only be done through the Borders and Shading. But it provides
a very limited color choice. How can I get a rich fill color palette like
the one with the Background fill? Any vba code can solve the problem? Thank
you.

I answered this question on 9 January in the word97vba group. Please don't
post multiple copies of the same question to different groups.

Look Jonathan, you did not answer my last question. And now you are
preventing anyone else to give me an answer for that?

VBA can't do things to Word documents that Word itself does not support. If
you want more colors than the colors and mixes that Word 97 supports then
you must upgrade to Word 2000 or later. The answer might not be what you
wanted to hear, but I'm afaid it is the only true answer you are going to
get, here or in the word97vba group.
