barcode
The label that you select has to be big enough for the barcode to fit,
otherwise the option is not available. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

barcode
Rob,
Postal Bar codes from a ZIP+4 will not fit on an Avery 5160 Address label. You will have to use an Avery 8161. This was true in Word 97, 2000, 2002 and 2003. You can't change the size as you would font sizes. The bar code must match the U.S. Postal Service specificaitons. Next point regarding the printing of the bar codes. There will be no postal savings to you unless you apply for a Bulk Mail permit and have your addresses certified by a mailing house for a fee. Sure, programs to do this are available for hundreds of dollars and the semi-annual update fee is horrenderous. Ask for the U.S. Postal Services Domestic Mail Manual 200 Series at your Post Office.
