Background display in MS Word

[CXsjr]

I recently took delivery of my 27" i7 iMac. I've installed MS Office and when I recently went to use word for the first time since installation, I noticed the background is divided into 2 shades of grey.

Word is functioning normally other than for this but the split display is just a little distracting. I also use Word on my MBP and don't have the same issues there, nor did I on my old G5.

Anyone got any clues?

That's just the background for Word 2008. If you don't want to see it, you can either resize your window so that you don't have so much of the background visible behind your document, or you can increase the zoom level of your document so that it takes up more space in the Word window.
