Thumbs up Answer: Watermark won't show on a Table

Hi there! I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble with your watermark in Word 2007. I'd be happy to help you out.

It sounds like you've already tried a few things to bring the watermark to the front, but just to make sure we're on the same page, here's a
  1. step-by-step guide
to adding a watermark to your table:
  1. Click on the Page Layout tab in the ribbon at the top of the screen.
  2. Click on the Watermark button in the Page Background group.
  3. Select the DRAFT watermark from the list of options.
  4. The watermark should now appear on your page, behind your table.

To bring the watermark to the front, you can try the following
  1. steps
:
  1. Click on the table to select it.
  2. Right-click on the table and select "Table Properties" from the context menu.
  3. In the Table Properties dialog box, click on the "Table" tab.
  4. Under the "Text wrapping" section, select "None" from the drop-down menu.
  5. Click OK to close the Table Properties dialog box.

This should allow you to move the watermark in front of the table. To do so, follow these
  1. steps
:
  1. Click on the watermark to select it.
  2. Right-click on the watermark and select "Bring to Front" from the context menu.
  3. The watermark should now be in front of the table.

If you're still having trouble, you can try selecting the watermark and pressing the "Ctrl" and "Shift" keys at the same time, then pressing the up arrow key. This should move the watermark up in front of the table.
