Default Ref field with graphic

Have a look at http://www.gmayor.com/graphics_on_labels.htm
Create all the labels (business cards) with the REF field(s) then add an ASK
field(s) to the first label to gather the data. Save the following macro *in
the document - not in normal.dot*. Save as a template. On creating a new
document from the template the ASK field(s) will pop up and request the data
and fill the ref fields with that data.

Sub AutoNew()
Dim oStory As Range
Dim oField As Field
For Each oStory In ActiveDocument.StoryRanges
For Each oField In oStory.Fields
oField.Update
Next oField
Next oStory
End Sub

Hi, all;

I am trying to create a business card template where members of our
organization can enter their information once and have it replicated
in all 8 locations on the Avery template. To do this, I am trying to
use a ref field that links to the entire inner table that is the
business card layout. The top cel of the table contains a floating
graphic, because this is card has a bleed on the top and left edges. The
problem is that the ref gets everything in the cel but the
graphic. Or maybe it did get the graphic, but it is on top of the
original graphic.
Any ideas?

TIA;

Amy
