Return Addresses drop down list
MS Word 2003. In the envelopes and labels wizard return addresses can be
inserted by clicking on the down arrow to select from a list of previously used addresses. How can that drop down list be edited to remove old addresses? Thanks |

Return Addresses drop down list
The short answer is that you can't. The only way to clear the address list is
to delete or rename the Word data key in the registry - HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\W ord\Data - but this has implications for a whole raft of personal settings. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "Keith" wrote: MS Word 2003.

Return Addresses drop down list
Thanks Graham, I would rather not change registry settings. Is there a file I
can delete or rename to force a new listing of return addresses? Thanks again. - Keith "Graham Mayor" wrote: The short answer is that you can't.

No. They are stored in the registry as indicated. Not in a file.
