Can I group a frame with an object in Word 2007?

Hello - I was wondering if it's possible to group a frame (with text inside it) to a small png image within a word document. I need to include the text in a frame because I need the Automark file to pick it up for my index. It won't pick it up when it's in a standard textbox.

 

My plan is then to build a macro that inserts said frame and image into the margin of the document when needed. It's like a reference point. Then I want to be able to create an index of all of these reference points.

 

The only other way I've investigated is to create separate macros (one for the frame and one for the image), but when I run the macros this way, it inserts the frame right on top of the image, or if I move the cursor, it inserts the frame at random positions according to my cursor. Because I need other authors (who aren't very good at Word) to perform this task, I need the frame and the image to be inserted a standard distance and alignment to each other.

 

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried putting both the image and text inside the frame?
