Default Show grid in front of picture

Excel isn't real good at this kind of thing. It's tiling the picture to fill
the page.

Try setting it up as a watermark - at least in that setup you can adjust the
size of the picture and it only appears once per sheet.

I tried this and it doesn't work. I set the print area and get 4 logos
instead of one

Check out Excel help for both "Background" and "watermark".

Background is under Format | Sheet. You may want to set the print area on
the worksheet since the background will show up multiple times.

I'm creating a family tree using Excel and wuold like to have a washed out
old pic as the background. In order to do this, I need all the grid lines to
show on top of this picture.

How do I put a picture behind everything including grid lines?

Thanks,
