What you're looking for is a "watermark." If you have Word 2002 or above,
use Format | Background | Printed Watermark and choose the desired graphic.

Microsoft Word 2000€ at

I want to create a word doc w/ a logo at the top, text on two pages. I
want
the logo & text to be a background type image where I can write over the
top.
i.e. contracts. I cannot seem to get this accomplished, can you help?

have to be so) with its layout property set to 'behind text' in the
document
header view, so this is exactly what you require.

I have a picture I want to use as a background to all the pages in a
document. I tried to create a template with one page with the image
on it but this didn't work. I can type over the image without a
problem, but as soon as I go onto a second page the image jumps to
the new page.
How can I get round this? I don't want the picture to be a watermaks
as it's colour and I want it to stay that way. Any ideas?
