Help! I have a document that appears to have a watermark....yet, when I go
through the process to remove it, nothing happens. Any ideas? could it be
something other than a watermark? Thanks so much

It could just be grey text on the header page.

Go to View -- Header and Footer

While in this view you should be able to click on/select the watermark.
When selected, it will appear the same as a selected picture. (For some
reason, Word converts watermarks to word art...no idea why)

Delete it.

The watermark is now gone.

Note that if the watermark appears in multiple sections, you will have to
repeat the select & delete process for each section.
