Default Return Address along Left Side of Envelope

OK, MVPs, here's my challenge for you...

I'm doing some work for a woman who can be very inflexible about what she
wants. What she wants now is for the envelopes she prints on MS Word 2003
(PC) to look like the envelopes she used to print on her Mac.

On the Mac, she had a template set up and she manually filled it out. I'd
like to set-up the Envelope wizard to automatically address the properly
formatted envelopes for her when she types a letter, though.

Here's the issue: Her return address uses her logo and runs along the
lefthand side of the envelope, rather than in the upper left corner. I know
how to create a graphic with the logo and save it to EnvelopeExtra1, and it
comes up just fine and in the correct position. The problem is since it uses
the entire left side of the envelope from top to bottom, it pushes the
outgoing address to the next page. If I use "add to document" for the
envelope, the result is two envelopes before the document: one with only the
return address and one with only the outgoing address.

How do I get both the envelope return and the envelope address to stay on
one page?

I know I'm going to have to tweak styles, which is fine, I just haven't been
able to figure out what tweak I need specifically. Which brings me to
question number two...

Is there any way to download the Word-provided default styles? In my
attempts to solve this problem, I seem to have corrupted the frames of the
"Envelope Address" and "Envelope Return" styles.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,

-J.
