Default Image behind a selection of cells??

Is it possible to insert an image into Excel so that the text in the
cells is in front of the image?


Sounds easy, but I have toyed with watermarks, Picture Editing and all
to no avail.

Sounds like a "Background" to me. pretty tough to have it in just one
area tho.

The nearest I have got is adding to a comment box and formating it attached
to a cell, so it resizes as cells change.

Not given up yet though.

Try This
On the Format menu, point to Sheet, and then click Background.

Select the graphics file to use for the background pattern
