Set image object as backgroung of cell and be printable

[ktab]

Hello,

How can i set an image (transparent does not suit me) as a cell's background (like watermark or so) and be able to print it? I have tried background but discovered that you may not print background.
The problem is that i want whatever is the cell's value i want it to be visible on top of image.

Thank you
Kostas

when i do the SHIFT/EDIT/PASTE PICTURE LINK, it only pastes a certain amount of columns.

my worksheet (1st page) goes to AJ. the paste only shows to AE.

I am unable to replicate your problem. I tested pasting as far right as AW with no problem. (Only 100 rows or so, though.)

can i send you the file i'm working with by email and have you take a look?


EDIT:

could it be my version? i'm at work (way behind the times) and we have Excel 2000.

Are you able to download and run Aaron's workbook? If so, then it's not your Excel version.

yes, i was able to download and open aaron's workbook.

and i tried again today...with a fresh mind after a day off work...still can't get it to show the entire page...let alone the second page i need.
