You cannot apply the image for entire page, as it affects other sections too.. but you can add only upto same selected sections. U can select middle large section and apply background image.

1. Create an additional Page Header section:


· Right-click the gray area to the left of the Page Header section

- Select 'Insert section below'


This inserts a second Page Header, so you now have a Page Header - a and a Page Header - b.


2. Re-size the Page Header - a section so it is the height of the page.


3. Insert the bitmap image (a .BMP file) of the pre-printed form or logo for the watermark into the Page Header -a section.


4. Go to Format | Section to open the Section Expert window, and select the Page Header - a section.


5. Select the 'Underlay following section' option.


6. Close the Section Expert.


The bitmap image in Page Header - a now appears beneath all the sections that come after it, up to the Page Footer.


The Page Headers and Page Footers cannot exceed the vertical size of the


-->Ensure that you suppress the Page Footer of the report because the Page Header cannot underlay the Page Footer.
