Word 2010 Watermark

Is it possible to create a Watermark that shows in the lower right hand corner of a one page Word 2010 document rather than in the middle of the page?

I have a table where I need to have words like "Fill in details here" as a watermark with other text on top..

Bright ideas very much appreciated.

Hi have you considered using content controls to create a form for collecting the data? This is quite close to what you want, the box would initially have "Fill in details here" which would be replaced with the text entered by the user. There are plenty of guides on the web, here is a good starter for you:

Also, the data can be collected for use in an Access database, so it makes the data collection process more flexible.

Sorry the form is mainly used as hard copy - online input is less than 5% of useage

Many thanks. I also found a way to simulate a watermark using "SnagIt"! Looks like an area that Microsoft could tackle.
