Hi Doug

Thanks for that advice. I had searched for a template but I couldn't find
the 6x4". Now I know what it's called.

By the way, why is the page size listed as letter? And yet the postcard size
is 6x4"?

You should NOT repeatedly press the return key to get to the next page.

You should base your document on the Avery 8389 - Postcard that you can
access via ToolsLetters and MailingsEnvelopes and Labels, then click on
the Options button and select that label from the list, then click on the
New Document button. That will give you a page. By default, the text that
is entered into such a label is centered vertically.

Hi

I'm using Word 2003 and I am using 6x4" index cards. I have about 20 cards
in one document with a short piece of text on each card. I had the
vertical
alignment set to 'centre' so that each time I inserted a new page break,
or
repeatedly pressed the return key to get to the next page, the text would
always be dead centre.

But then I changed the vertical alignment to 'top'. But when I hit the
space
bar at the beginning of the first line of text on the first index card (in
order to take it down a bit from the header) the text shot on to the next
index card. When I tried to backspace the text to get it on to the first
index card again, it wouldn't move. I can't figure out what is going on.
Can
anyone help?
