58021	2002-06-28 09:52:00	I'm running excel97 and can embed a background logo as a watermark (using format/sheet/background) which shows up on the sheet on screen. However, it does not show on Print Preview, nor will it print. Nothing I have found in the MS database or anywhere else has solved this. Anyone who can, please help. Thanks Luis	Luis (718)

However, if you publish an entire workbook as a Web page, the background is retained. i.e.you cannot do it, the background is only for display purposes. I would think this has a lot to do with auditability, as a printed background could obscure figures and probably lead to a lawsuit against Microsoft in the US!!	godfather (25)
