I'm trying to use a macro to overlay form data on forms that are generated from a text editor like MS word and printed to a file.

However,  the character cell background is not transparent.  All cells have white background.   How do you make the cells background transparent.  I tried using <esc>*v0N and <esc>*v0O before the text characters but it doesn't work.

Here's a sample of my macro without any transparency commands.( "^[" is the escape character ): 


^[&f123Y^[&f0X^[&k2G^[&s0C^[&l0O^[&l0E^[&a0L^[&l6D^[&l66F^[(s0S^[(s0B^[(8U^[(s52T^[(s7V^[(s0P^[(s10H^[%0A^[*p234Y^[&a0C
My form data in plain text
^[&f1x4X

Any help is appreciated.

I noticed you have a copyright at the bottom of the page with the comment &quot;These pages are served without commercial sponsorship. (No popup ads, etc...)&quot;, although Google ads places its &quot;pagead&quot;s overwriting text at the top, making it hard to read.<BR>
I understand that the google ad pays for some of the expenses, but they should be more considerate on overwriting text.</BLOCKQUOTE>

|Insert 'Try sending the following: esc*t300R followed by esc*b8WU3//@~@~ about 30 times. You should see a nice black and white pattern that looks something like:
