Default Image background for table?

I need an image to be the background of a table. I can't see any way to do
this or any way to insert a textbox with an image and make it appear behind
the table.
Any ideas?
HELP!!!!

Insert your image and set it "Behind text". You might also change it to a
washout so that the table text is clear. You can do all this on the picture
toolbar.

That option is greyed out. Maybe because it's a picture file and not
clipart?

Joe,
Should work as Rae indicated.
Insert your picture in the document.
Format - Picture - Layout tab - choose thumbnail before text.
Now drag your picture above your table where you want it to be.
Format - Picture - Layout tab - choose thumbnail behind text.

How about just using a watermark?
