88768	2002-10-13 08:28:00	Sometime ago PCWorld printed an article on including a graphic on an address label in Word 97. With Christmas just around the corner I wish to include a Christmas graphic on my address labels, sourcing the addresses from a database in Excel. I'd appreciate any advice on how this can be achieved. Thank you. Roger	rogthom (2232)

My area of difficulty, nay impossibility is in placing a graphic on to the label. Building a database and merging that in to Word is no problems, just inserting a single graphic onto the left hand side of each label with the address printed from there to the right. I am sure that in the original article, the graphic was almost part of a template?? i.e. you did not have to insert it on to each and every label, just once and it appeared on them all. Hope that is some guidance. Many thanks. Roger	rogthom (2232)
