    Access 2003 Database

    Hello,

    Im using access 2003 and have been stumped on an issue and looking for help. Ive created a report to be printed for a customer, in the report the main body of information is in a subform, here inlies the issue the customer wants a "watermark" picture to be printed on the report, great the issue im having is when its printed the text thats produced in the subform creates a white text box over the picture. Ive tried to set the background of the subform to be transparent, ive tried setting the properties of the picture to only appear when printed doesnt work. Any ideas? thanks.

    Thread moved from the 'Database Development' forum (which is for questions about tables/SQL/etc) to the 'Office Development/VBA' forum (which is where other Access based questions belong)

    Printing is done via Access' print mennu.

    Are you using a Form object designed as your report or a Report object itself?

    Its a report with a subreport, in which the subreport has the watermarks.
    still gives me the white text box around the text that overlays over the watermark in the printed out report.
