Hi,

Does it look like a shadow? Is it a diagram type object?

Picture a multi-cell table with no fills. Then picture the same table after creating a single, say light blue, cell fill. The light blue fill covers the cell in two dimensions, but then a third dimension going 'behind' the cell contains a top, and a left, shading connected to the top and left borders of the cell. The top, and the left, shadings are each different levels of blue relative to the light blue cell fill. Happy to send the table to you! I'm using PPT 2002 under WinXP

On the Drawing toolbar, see if changing (turning off, actually) the 3D
settings does the trick. (You'll need to select the table before
clicking on the 3D settings options to be able to see if there's a 3D
setting applied.)

Um, John, the original poster is trying to turn the 3D effects *off* on a
table.

Um .. wellllllllllll .... if PowerPoint can't turn 3D effects on, then it can't
turn 'em off again. Yeah. That's the ticket.
