I'm trying to add a background graphic to a table, but the checkbox is
disabled. How do I enable it?

Change your browser compatibility settings. And be aware of what they mean.
The background image will not show up in certain browsers.

The current setting is
BROWSERS: Both Internet Explorer and Navigator
BROWSER VERSIONS: 5.0/6.0 and later

As far as I know, these settings should accommodate background graphics.

I now have it at Custom. The checkbox is still not enabled. As a workaround,
I tried going to the code view and manually adding the Background= modifier
to the <table> tag. That worked; the background image shows perfectly.
However, that check box is STILL not enabled. So, my specific problem is
solved, but the general issue is not.

is it _possible_ that you have open only a page and not a whole web or site?

Due to an error in the schemas used in FP 2003 (from Visual Studio), you need to set it to IE5+ only
