How do I change TOC background

[Guest]

Whenever I insert a TOC into a document, the background of the text displays
in dark gray. Some users can open the doc and not see gray but some users do.
The document always prints with black text and white background. I tried
changing the font style but it already indicates no background color on the
text. I tried overlaying my Normal.dot template with another users.

Tools > Options > View > Field Shading

Most experienced users pick "when selected", I suspect.

The TOC is a field. Field shading is selected on the View tab of Tools |
Options.
