Ghosting Out Cells

I have a spreadsheet which will be replicated and given to a number of
different people to fill in different parts. I would like to Ghost out, or
make semi-transparent, parts of the spreadsheet (depending on which part the
individual needs to fill in). I know you can shade cells....but is there
anyway to alter the transparency of the colours/gridlines/fonts....

Any help would be great.

(Im using Excel 2000)

Cheers,

Phil

I've figured this out..

If you draw a box over the area you want to make transparent... then format
the box and make it semi-transparent.
