Different margin for the first page question
Hi,
My wife would like to format a letter with a different left margin on the first page to accommodate some pre-printed letterhead. I looked up the instruction from Jay Freedman and Suzanne Barnhill on the Word newsgroups. (Thanks to you two and Graham Mayor for publishing them!). I finally understood them, but I have a couple of follow-on questions. My wife needs to publish a letter with Mail Merge. Can she initiate the process from Access and get the right template from Word? Or does she need to create a blank document from the template in Word and initiate the Mail Merge from there? My recollection is that Mail Merge produces one document with all the merged text. So if the Merge results in 200 letters of two pages each, the result is one document with 400 pages, right? (She's not going to print directly from the merge.) Should I adapt the margin template to set different margins for the odd and even pages in this case? I assume I can use the same procedure with the text box for Odd page headers as well as First page headers. Right? Her immediate problem is limited to letters with one or two pages. But how would one deal with longer letters and Mail Merge to get the desired margins? Thanks, Steve |
