Default Table Styles

I hope someone can help me figure this out as I cant find a previous post
with the same problem. When I open a new word 2007 doc, the table styles are
shown in only black and white. So I went to the layout tab, themes and the
current theme said "office" which I understand is the default theme, but it
was in black and white. So I clicked on the drop down arrow and selected
office, and got colors. It only works for that doc tho. I tried to create a
new normal template but that didnt work. I think I did something to the
settings somewhere because on older dox that I have in word 2007, I dont have
this problem.
Thanks for any help someone can give me.

Do the following to (re-)apply the desired theme to the Normal template:
Press Ctrl+O to display the Open dialog box. Click Trusted Templates. Select
Normal and click the Open button. Apply the theme. Save and close the
template file.

If you prefer to recreate the Normal template, here's how to do that: Exit
Word. Locate the Normal file, for example by searching for it in Windows
(Windows key + F); be sure to search hidden files and folders. Rename the
file that you find. When you restart Word, Normal will be recreated with the
factory default settings.
