word 2003 how to remove background/watermark text

Hi

I have word 2003 SP2 with a 150 page document. Lots of tables some
stuff in 2 columns, mixed landscape and portrait pages. Contents pages
etc

All went well until I put in a background watermark "final draft V
1.01" Now I need to remove the watermark it only removes it on the first
14 pages . Ie just up to and including the contents page

From Chapter 1 ( a new section and new header footer and "page1") to the
end the background watermark is still there.

No matter what I try I can't seem to remove the background watermark.
(Even loaded it on to a copy of Word 2004 MAC!) Any suggestions other
than hacking it in a hex editor?

Any help gratefully received.

Regards
Chris

G'Day Chris,

The Watermark is a 'picture' object that is anchored in the Header.

Unless the Header(s) is/are marked 'Same as previous', you will
need to remove the Watermark from each section.

Place the Insertion point in the Section
ViewHeader and Footer
Click on the Watermark (to select it)
Press 'Delete'

Hi,

thanks for the help. In the end I had to go to each section open the
header/footer, then hide the main document text, then click on the
watermark and delete from each section.
