I don't think you can put a graphic into a style, but you can get the
same effect another (and better) way.
Create a macro that inserts the graphic and assigns the style to the
current paragraph, and give the macro a key shortcut. Works a treat!
You may be able to do something similar with autotext or autocorrect,
but I've never tried that.
