Like Alan suggested I think the easiest solution is to just create it

using the VFP report writer.  Put all the words, lines, boxes etc using

the normal report writer tools and anything graphics like that you can't

create, put that in as a JPG or GIF.  I have done that on loads of

reports here.  You may be able to do the whole page as a watermark or

something like that and pretty sure there are people on the forum who

have done a full page watermark in VFP, but I'm sure the normal report

is easier.

Just my .02
