How do I set a background in full color. I've tried inserting a watermark,
but it is set as partially transparent. I am wanting to use the image in real
color.

Thanks,
Ray

View | Header and Footer (or double-click in the header in Word 2007),
select the watermark, and change the color from Washout to Automatic.

Thanks Suzanne.

I've clicked on the watermark and the setting was already set to Automatic.
When I click on the watermark, the transparancy goes away.

I'm using Word 2003 if that helps.

Help!

All header/footer contents are dimmed when you are working in the document
body (and vice versa). They will print at normal intensity. I'd say you can
check this in Print Preview, but it turns out that some wrapped graphics
appear dimmed even in Print Preview.

Thanks, Suzanne.

If I send this document as an email, (email merge), will the watermark make
the trip?

Only if you send it as an attachment. Your best bet is to convert to PDF and
send as an attachment.
