Mail merge error in Word 2003
The mail merge wizard is hardly the most intuitive piece of software and has
been widely criticised. At step 3, 'write your letter' will give you access to the envelope and is incorrectly described in the instructions. Much better to forget the wizard altogether and use the mail merge toolbar. If you set the document type as envelope instead of labels, the procedure is similar to that described at http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org EnjoyYourFreedom wrote: 1.
