THere doesn't seem to be enough information in your original posting. What
version of Word are you running and can you be very specific with your
problem?
It sounds like the numbers that are shaded gray are field code results,
rather than actual numbers. Press Alt+F9 to toggle between field codes and
field code results.
The gray shading will not show up when the document is printed. It's there
only to help you see that some text is really field code results, rather
than actual text. How field results are displayed is controlled by Tools -
Options - View - Field Shading.
