If you have the frame selected or text within the frame selected, this style
should be the one that shows before you even touch the toolbar. (You want
the frame selected.)

I think is what I need. I feel closer than ever before.

I followed all instructions (clumsly, but I got there) until I need the
Envelope Address in the drop down list in Styles, under the Formatting
toolbar. I don't see Envelope Address but what does appear is many Font
styles designated by function within the section.

I will keep working. Roger

Graham is the envelope expert around here.

However, if you are addressing your envelopes using the envelopes wizard
rather than a template, you can change the location of the address area.
It
is set in the Envelope Address style. You'll need to change this style in
each template you use for writing letters or whatever it is you launch
the
envelope wizard from.

Make sure that your options are set under Tools Options Edit to
prompt
to update style.
Create a new document based on your template.
Insert a new envelope into the document using the wizard with some dummy
text in the address area.
If you have text boundaries displayed, you'll see the boundaries for the
frame that holds the address.
Click on this frame too get the graphics handles to display (the little
boxes in corners and sides).
Use the one on top (center) up to stretch the box up so you'll have
enough
room.
In the formatting toolbar click on Envelope Address in the styles drop
down.
Press Enter.
A dialog should pop up asking if you want to update the style to the
current
setting. You do.
Under the Format menu, display Styles and Formatting (or Styles)

If you have a task pane for Styles and Formatting displayed, right-click
on
the style shown under Formatting of selected text and choose modify. If
the
Styles dialog box pops up, click on the Modify button.

Check the box on this to Add to Template.

Close your document and when prompted as to whether you want to save
changes
to the template, your answer is yes. (You don't want to save the
document.)

If you have multiple templates, you can use the Organizer to copy this
revised style from one to others.
See http://addbalance.com/word/movetotemplate.htm#Styles or
http://addbalance.com/usersguide/styles.htm#Organizer for instructions on
using the Organizer.

When addressing Size 10 envelopes, we find the Auto placement from the
top
of
the delivery address is not often where we like it for recipients whose
address contains 4 or more lines. (It runs off the bottom or intrudes
into
the bar code our postal carrier imprints.) We know how to change it,
but
this is a one time occurance. If we are going to send multiple 4 line
addressed envelopes, we must make the setting for each individual
envelope
before printing.

I think I know the answer here, but I would like someone who knows to
confirm my fuzzy thinking.

I think the answer is to create a custom envelope with the placement of
print where I need it to be. Then save the custom envelope as a custom
envelope. (Would like to be able to name this or create more than one
custom
envelope for something more than just Size 10 envelopes.) I would have
my
secretary use this custom template for addressing the recipients whose
addressess are 4 lines in length. Am I correct?

Last question, Is it possible to create more than one custom envelope
and
name/label them in the Envelope Options drop down choice list?
