Page number watermark in Excel Spreadsheets

How do I remove this page number watermark?

you buy whatever it is that you are attempting to read. Unless you put the water mark there, it is there so people will not steal creative property.

Allow me to restate the question. I have created an Excel spreadsheet. On each page of the spreadsheet is the page number, which is embedded like a watermark. Is there anyway to remove this page number? It is right in the middle of the page, and makes the information hard to read. It is a rather dark gray.

Watermark functionality is not available in Microsoft Office Excel.

Google brings up about a dozen other pages saying the same exact thing. If you are printing and have created the water mark, you should know how to remove it. Based on the information in these links, even if you do not know, you can figure out how to remove what you created.

If there is a watermark on the screen of a file that you opened, then you did not create it, or it is not an Excel file.

Overwhelming evidence shows otherwise. Sorry mate.
