i have made corrections to labels in MS WORD 2003
they show up on my screen in normal mode
but will not show in Print Preview or when printed
I have tried saving the document and reopening it
the corrections appear -but still no luck

this is driving me crazy
any help would be appreciated
I am running Win XP if that helps

Make sure that the text is not formatted as Hidden (Format | Font). If you
used text boxes instead of a table (the usual way) to lay out the labels,
make sure that "Drawing objects" is checked on the Print tab of Tools |
Options.

thank you for trying to help
i reviewed the three things you suggested and none of these is the
problem

1-the labels were made using the labels and envelopes feature
2-i checked and hidden is NOT checked
3-Drawing Objects IS checked

i have used this for several years and just update addresses as needed,
for some reason this year i am having trouble
any other ideas?

You may have done a Shift+Control+H somewhere along the line, which is the
keyboard shortcut for Hidden formatting
