A watermark in Excel?

Afternoon all,

I have found a few threads outlining the way to add a ‘watermark’ to reports. Now this works really well, and looks fantastic when output is saved in PDF format.

Has anyone managed to find a way to implement any kind of watermark feature when the required output is in Excel format??

** Just a quick edit to add that the report is written in full client XI.

I ask this through ignorance, but is it even possible to have a watermark in an Excel spreadsheet - putting BO to one side for a moment? Because if it isn’t you’re unlikely to have much luck.

No, it isn’t. I was looking for it a while ago for something else.

Closest I got was using this link:
