REMOVING Watermarks

The Template is for the Brochure in Office Word - the example is for a
Ski and
Spa - hence the snowflake! It took about an extra hour this morning to
work out something new into a blank document-which is great, but
doesn't solve the problem, so thanks for following up with me.

I did try using the header/footer view, but it didn't seem to help me
find a box to delete the first time. I will try that again tomorrow,
and see if it helps.

Can't be sure, but from the way the posts read I would tend to doubt it.

It's probably moot as I fear Cat's deadline has passed

Hey fellas, Catching up - we had a parade and unveilng for a
Suffragist's Memorial here today. Tennssee was the deciding vote in
ratiiying the 19th amendment! Our new statue is in Knoxville. So,
I've been busy celebrating for the last several hours.

As to my project, one of the suggestions about moving the text blocks
allowed me to paste my text, maintaining the 3 panel format, into a
blank document, without taking the watermarks with me. In THAT way, I
was able to complete the project on time. YIPPEE!

I still need to work this out and with regard to the integrity of the
programming, I'll need to check that one out, because I was on a PC
before this Mac. And unfortunately, I still haven't been able to take
the classes for training that the store offers me.

That's next on my list. Anyway, thanks for the positive attempts to
help - greatly appreciated and I'll remember to use this in the future
if I'm stuck - it really was very helpful!
