Default Text Watermark in Excel

Can I insert a text watermark in Excel just like you can in Microsoft office?
What I'm trying to do is create a document that will serve as an Example so I
need it to somehow display the word "example" in the background, not on the
whole page but on the first 3 or 5 rows. I tried using WordArt but I don't
know if I can make the text appear in front of the WordArt instead of hidden
behind it. I tried but I don't know how. Can someone please help me? Thank
you so much!
