You could create an envelope template and use the method at
http://www.gmayor.com/Macrobutton.htm to put the Outlook data on the
envelope. There are sample envelopes to download from my web site using this
method (though you will have to add the Title field).

Oh-oh. According to KB Article 292127 the only workaround is to
cut-and-paste the Contact's name and address from a Word document
into the Envelope. Any hope?

I notice that there is sometimes a significant difference between
the way Word (2002/2003) enters an Outlook Contact's address using
the Insert Address button, say in a letter, and the way it enters
the same Contact's information using the Insert Address button in
Envelopes. Is there more than 1 version of the Insert Address
button? How can I get them to yield the same information for the
same contact? The Gory Details: I have modified the AddressLayout feature
so that
in addition to the usual name and address the Insert Address button
conditionally enters the Contact's Title and Company Name, i.e.,
only if the Contact actually has either a Title or Company Name. This
works quite well. Thus I get:

S. Lyme Bawl
Assistant General Counsel
Dewey Cheatham & Howe, Inc.
123 45th Street
Nirgendwo, NY 12345

But this "conditional" information is missing when I try to enter
the same person's address in an Envelope using the Insert Address. Of
course, I can work around this by cutting and pasting the
information from the letter into the envelope, but that is a little
awkward--and not an option if I have not created a letter to that
Contact. Is there any way to get that same "conditional"
information into an Envelope using the Insert Address button?

Here's the way AddressLayout is currently set up:

{PR_DISPLAY_NAME}
{{PR_TITLE}
}{{PR_COMPANY_NAME}
}{PR_POSTAL_ADDRESS}



Note: The expression PR_POSTAL_ADDRESS returns an address from the
Address Book, including the country if it is different from mine,
i.e., a country other than the U.S..
