There are no 'standard toolbars' in Word 2007 except the QAT (Quick Access
Toolbar) which by default will be above the ribbon, though you can move it
to below the ribbon to give more space. If your friend has 'toolbars' then
he must be using some form of add-in to provide them.

I couldn't get the system to let me leave a "new" message, so I'm
attempting to get a solution to my problem by writing here. I want
the Standard Toolbars for MS Word 2007 but have not been able to get
them. My friend, who also has MS Word 2007 has the standard
toolbars, but neither of us can figure out how to get them on my
computer. I've looked everywhere.

Can anyone help me with this problem.
Thanks much

The merge function/print function has not in essence changed with
Word 2007. It works exactly as it did before albeit with some
differences in some dialog boxes. When you merge a label merge
document to a new document each page of the resulting document is a
new section and each section will have one page i.e page 1. If you
want to print a range of pages then you should address the pages by
section rather than page number eg to print the third 'page' put s3
in the Print Pages box. print 'pages 3 - 5' put s3-s5 in the print
pages box. It was ever thus!

Thank you Graham and Doug for your help!

I did finally manage to get my labels created without duplicates. I
renamed all the categories and rematched them. Then I skipped
PREVIEW and went straight to FINAL. I ran into more problems at
that point.

For whatever reason the '07 PRINT Fx refused to work properly with
my brand new Canon all-in-one. I wanted to print out just a few
pages at a time, but couldn't set the function to 'choose pages
3-5'. I could print out the page I was on, but that''s it Yet, I
can print out using any choice (all, current page, etc) without
problems if I'm using '03.

DragonSpeak 9.5 doesn't work 100% with Office 07. Standard
dictation is ok but commands are no longer recognized. I'll have
to contact Nuance to see if there is a patch which will fix the
problem. Also, any document formatted in 07 can't be read by
previous versions of Word. Great. I have to convert all my work
done so far in 07 before the trial is over.

I'm NOT impressed by 07. I think Microsoft made a lot of things
harder for no particular reason. Seems everything has an extra
step. You want to print? Ok, go to the Office sign, click it, drop
down to Print, go over to select one of the choices for Printing,
now select one of those....you get the idea. I had to make my own
toolbar to cut down on the constant back and forth required by the
new format.

For those who love to brag they have the latest and greatest
software they are welcome to this latest Microsoft update. It
really doesn't do anything better than previous versions. The time
it takes to train staff to learn a whole new layout is something I
have to consider before ordering it for my company. Personally, I
don't think it's worth an extra $500 for even my own computer.

Are you sure that there are Next Record fields in all "labels"
in the mail merge main document except for the first one?

Dear Graham,

while your site is AWESOME and was helpful- I HIGHLY recommend it
to everyone!-unfortunately, it didn't solve my problem. I went
through the label process step by step, and S.O.B- i still ended
up with literally dozens
and dozens of duplicates. Where I should have had about 120
labels, I ended
up with 339!

They are scattered throughout the label merge, so they might go
albacore, alpha, angel, attitude. alpha, badly, banter, angel,
attitude, barcode, barter, canopy, badly, banter, etc.

I can't figure out for the life of me WHY it's doing this! I also
found the
usual voice controls for 'edit' 'paste' and 'cut' don't work with
my voice softwa which makes my life a lot harder ( I have MS,
so typing is time consuming when I have to do it manually)

I'm still very open for HELP!

thanks in advance

If you chose to install 2007 alongside Word 2003, both should be
available,
though not without some conflicts - see
http://www.gmayor.com/Toolbars_in_word_2007.htm

From your description of the merge it is impossible to spot the
deliberate
mistake, however I suspect you are previewing the source document
and not completing the merge. You must merge to a new document or
the printer to see
the merge as it is completed see
http://www.gmayor.com/merge_labels_with_word_2007.htm.
http://www.gmayor.com/graphics_on_labels.htm and

This was exactly the same in 2003!

I'm trying to print out ONE set of labels using the new 2007
WORD [which has disabled my 2003 version so i'm really stuck].
I made a mail merge of approximately 100 titles and added
graphics etc. But, when I went to preview I got a shocl: I get
over 390 labels due to constant duplications! They're supposed
to be in alphabetical order, yet they keep jumping back and
restarting at different points. How can I correct this problem?
