Use 'Copy as Picture' to get cell on clipboard, paste into MacDraw or
some such, apply shaded background, cut, get back into Word, paste, and
then tinker around *endlessly* with negative line spacing numbers
and/or absolute positioning in order to get it to come out right.
It's doable, but a royal pain in the ass.  The one good thing is
that Word does come pretty close to clipping tone block to the
defined cell boundaries right and bottom, so you don't have to be very
precise about those from inside MacDraw or whatever.
