Thanks Graham, however, I don't have the problem with letters, only on
pleading-paper documents (proof of service with a list of names and
addresses).

If you download the envelope templates you can download from my web site
work correctly?

The transfer of addresses from letter to the envelope dialog will add any
manual formatting applied to the address that you transfer. For best
results modify (or create) the 'Inside Address' paragraph style to match
the appearance of the addresses in your document. Base it on 'no style'
and apply that style in place of whatever style you are currently using.

I didn't install Word 2007 over an older version. It was a new
install. Also, I've experienced this same issue in Word 2003 and Word
2000. It's really annoying. The default Envelope Address is, as you
say, already single spaced with no space after, so I don't know why
it doesn't work. I did it from a anew blank document, but it doesn't
seem to make a difference. I'm ready to just give up and admit Bill
Gates won this one !

Graham was suggesting you add an envelope to the document just as a
way of accessing the Envelope Address and Envelope Return styles in
order to modify them. If you don't want to do that, then do it as I
suggested, going through the Manage Styles dialog. Make sure that
you select the button marked "All documents based on this template."
Make sure you do this while you are in a new Blank Document, not
your pleading document (assuming it's based on a different
template), since its the styles in Normal.dotm you want to modify.

FWIW, the default Envelope Address style is single-spaced, with no
space after; apparently the problem comes only if you have installed
Word 2007 over an older version.

If you copy/paste the address to a blank page, you're probably
getting Normal style on that page (which may be different from
Normal in your document); you are not pasting it in Envelope Address
style (see
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/styl...tChanges.html). --

OK...did that, but when I blocked the address in the document it
moved it to the envelope at the bottom of the document. I want to
be able to just block the address and have it PRINT a single-spaced
envelope, without creating an envelope at the end of the
document.....as if I were blocking an address in a letter and
printing an envelope. In fact, even the return address comes up
double-spaced on the envelope unless I change the style for both
address envelope AND address return. As an added annoyance, even if
I block and copy the address and paste it to a blank page, it's
STILL double-spaced. "Graham Mayor" wrote

Add an envelope to a document and click in the envelope address
frame. If you have the list configured to show style 'In Use' it
will then be in the list.

PS... I was ultimately able to replicate the problem, but only by
first modifying the Envelope Address style so that it had
incorrect paragraph spacing. I'm guessing that that's the
problem in this case, and hence and suggesting that you modify
that style to see if it fixes your problem. If not, then my next
guess would be that the template is damaged in some way. --

I can't replicate the problem... but see if this will solve the
problem for you. I suspect that the double spacing is coming
from the Envelope Address style's Paragraph spacing settings.
Modify that style so that the Paragraph Befo and After:
spacing are both set to 0, and Line Spacing: is set to Single.

If the text is formatted as Envelope Address in the proof of
service document, do this:

1. click in the address and press Ctrl+Shift+S.

2. Verify that Envelope Address is the style shown in the Apply
Styles box, and click Modify.

3. Near the bottom of the Modify Style box, tick the "New
documents based on this template" option.

4. Click on the Format button (bottom left in the Modify
dialog). 5, Click Paragraph. In the Indents and Spacing tab, set
Spacing
Befo and After: both to 0. Set Line spacing: to Single.

Click OK twice.

Does that fix it?

I use 1-28 ruled and numbered pleading paper (based on the
legal pleading template - Word 2007). My "proof of service"
document includes mailing addresses, single spaced in the
document which is typed on the pleading paper. However, when I
block the mailing address and click the envelope icon to
create an envelope, the address appears double-spaced! I have
a document that includes a mailing list of 20 attorneys. Am I
going to have to retype all of their names and addresses on a
separate document in order to print out single spaced
envelopes ?
