Use a watermark in one section only
Using Word 2002. In a multi-section document, how can I use a watermark in
one section only? I thought I could open the section header, and then do FormatBackgroundPrinted Watermark, but after doing so, the watermark appeared in all sections, not just the targeted section. PatR

Insert the watermark, open the header, then cut the graphic to the clipboard
(CTRL+X). Unlink the headers between the sections and paste into the required section. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Patrick Riley wrote: Using Word 2002.

Use a watermark in one section only
Actually, if the watermark is in all the sections and you cut it from just
one, you'll probably have accomplished nothing. Instead, copy it from one, go back to Printed Watermark and choose No Watermark (and hope that actually removes it from all sections), then go to the header of the desired section (unlinked as Graham describes) and paste it there. Alternatively, unlink the headers and then delete the watermark from all the sections where you don't want it. -- Suzanne S.

Use a watermark in one section only
Okay, here's a way forward, then. Insert the watermark again. View the
header in any section and Copy the watermark. Then Undo to remove the watermark. Go to the header of the section where you want it and Paste. I'm sorry for your problems with the Web site; they are, unfortunately, not atypical. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "Patrick Riley" wrote in message ... I should have mentioned that all the section headers (and footers) were unlinked before I inserted the Watermark---I clicked off the "Same as previous" button on the Header and Footer toolbar for each of the 100 sections. When I then inserted the Watermark and it appeared in all 100, I exited the file without saving, so the Watermark was not in any section as I wrote my original query, nor is it in any now. Any further suggestions will be appreciated. P.S. For two days clicking on the two (standard) links in the e-mail alerting me to your responses produced only a blank white page---with the Microsoft.com URL in the address window. Has anyone else experienced this phenomenon? Also, due to this being our busy season at work, my manager cut off Internet access for my entire dept., so I have to wait until I come home to check for responses. What I what to convey here is that my delayed responses to your offerings is not due to inattention or lack of caring. You folks have helped me tremedously in this and previous projects. ---PatR ---PatR "Suzanne S.
