Never mind, I think I found what's happening. A test case worked fine.
The cells I was coloring already had a shading or background color
assigned, so somehow those effects overlapped. I simply need to modify the
template document and change the backgorund of the cells in question to
transparent then it should be fine

setting colors in Word table

I'm trying to format some field colors in a table in a word document.
wdColorRed comes up as 255 and displays bright red. wdColorGreen,
wdColorLightGreen and wdColorBrightGreen all come up with huge numbers and
are not a green tone. What am I missing? The actual activeX call I use is
wordapp.ActiveDocument.tables(table).Range.Cells(cell).Range.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor=bgcolor,
I'm feeding in table, cell and bgcolor. Maybe it would help if I knew how
the colors are coded, but I thought the built-in values at least would
work.
