Default word template problem

I have been struggling with a word template problem for long. I have a
word template that has some graphics and text on the left side. I
would like this section to just stay put, no matter what I do on the
right side. However, when I create a document using this template I
cannot hide carridge return or anything, for whenever I do that, the
left side graphics and text shifts up or down along.

How can I do some vba code (I am pretty newbies in vba) so I can have
the left-part graphics anchored to the left and not shift
downwards/upwards?

thanks guys,

You don't need vba code for this. Put the graphic/text in borderless text
box(es) within the left margin and anchored to the page header/footer for
the page(s) required.

Hi,

Put them in a textbox or in the header (even if not in the area usually
considered to be part of the header) or both. Take a look at: How to set up
letterhead or some other document where you want one header on the first
page and a different header on other pages.
http://www.addbalance.com/word/headersfooters.htm This gives step-by-step
instructions.

Also take a look at:
