Word 2007 Watermark

[MJ]

I have a two page document with a different header on the second page and
typed a table which covers the two pages and I want to add the draft
watermark to both pages. When I add it to the first page header, it doesn't
appear on the second page. If I go to the second page header and add the
watermark it takes it off the first page.

Word's "Insert Watermark" programming has the nasty habit of removing any
existing watermarks. Don't use it that way. Instead:

- Open the header of the page that has the watermark, select the watermark,
and copy to the clipboard.

- Go to the other header (click the Next Section or Previous Section button
on the Header & Footer Tools ribbon to save some scrolling), and paste. You
now have the same watermark in both sections.
