Word 2003. We are trying to do a mailmerge from an Excel spreadsheet to
create name labels. We have no problem getting the merge data and fields,
nor are we having any trouble selecting the label type we need. The problem
is when we are trying to lay out the labels. We cannot see the individual
label boundaries and thus have a hard time determining how the text and
graphics are going to look in relation to the label boundaries. Is there a
way to display lines that correspond to the individual label boundaries so
that we may know how the label is going to look? Thanks for the help.

From the Tables menu, select "Show gridlines". Labels are just tables with
fixed cell dimensions.

Hope this helps.
