How to set background on the Excel sheet

[Vatana]

Dear guys,

Can anyone tell me how to set a background in the sheet of Ms Excel? I have
only Ms Excel 2003 and once I am able to do it accidentally. Now I forget it
and would like to do it again.

Perhaps you've forgotten the Help facility in Excel? Try typing the word
"background" into Help.

You want this background just for viewing on sheet or for printing also?

Format>Sheet>Background will give you a background that does not print.

If you wish to print the background see Bob Phillips' site for methods.
