Delivery Point Barcode
Is it possible when doing an automated mail merge from Access to Word to add
the Delivery Point Barcode to an envelope? I created a Document connected to a my Access Database and it merges all of the envelopes correctly, but I can't figure out how to add the delivery point barcode from the envelope options because the checkbox is disabled when I go to check it I can't. I have a merged field titled Zip also if that helps. Could someone just let me know if it is possible to do that? Also I don't want to add a bar code text because I don't think it looks anything like the delivery bar code so I have already messed around with that. Thanks |

Delivery Point Barcode
Before using USPS barcodes you should read
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/897290/en-us If that does not put you off using them... In my experience, the DP Barcode option is now always disabled in the Mailmerge envelope setup dialog in Word 2003. (In fact, you won't even see the option unless you have set the locale to be English (United States) in the Control Panels Regional Options dialog). However, the option should be available in the dialog that you see when you create an envelope via Tools|Letters and Mailings|Envelopes and Labels. Alternatively, you can add a barcode field directly - if you search Google groups for Peter Jamieson barcode locale you should find some hints. Peter Jamieson "twen" wrote in message ...
