No, I don't think this is a function of any table style. I believe the
formatting is applied by the "wizard" that generates the label sheet. And
there's no way to get in there and change the behavior. Your only recourse
would be to write a macro that essentially duplicates the label wizard. (For
example, you could start with you template, have an AutoNew macro that prompts
for the address, then write that information to all the table cells so that the
user has a sheet with all the labels filled in.)
