Did someone say that they could still be used if you had saved them from
previous versions? -- Suzanne S.

As g-n-o states, there are no wizards in Word 2007, but see
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Letterhead.htm (not updated for Word 2007 yet, but most of it will still apply). -- Suzanne S.

How do I access Letter Wizard in Word 2007
As they were just based on user forms, there is no reason that they could
not be used in Word 2007. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP "Suzanne S.

How do I access Letter Wizard in Word 2007
If moved to the User Templates folder, they appear to work after a fashion,
but there are essential differences between the default normal templates of 2007 and earlier versions that can lead to some odd formatting. Of those I have tried the fax wizard appears to be only partially compatible, but the calendar wizard works quite well. On balance, for letters and faxes, I would recommend creating your own template. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Doug Robbins - Word MVP wrote: As they were just based on user forms, there is no reason that they could not be used in Word 2007.

How do I access Letter Wizard in Word 2007
I've never used the Letter Wizard (though did use a similar UserForm-based
solution in Word 2.0), but it seems to me that its greatest advantage would have been the ability to insert addresses from an address list (the Word 2.0 version saved these as "Glossary," i.e., AutoText, entries); now that Word will use only the Outlook address book, this would be of no value to me. I do use Bill Coan's DataPrompter to create UserForms for my letter templates, but addresses must still be typed in manually or pasted in from another source. -- Suzanne S.

How do I access Letter Wizard in Word 2007
You can insert addresses (from Outlook) using the insert address tool or
with vba (http://www.gmayor.com/Macrobutton.htm ) so it is still a better plan to create your own templates than to use the letter wizard. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Suzanne S.

How do I access Letter Wizard in Word 2007
Agreed. And I had added the Address item to my Insert menu at some point,
but then of course in Word 2003 it stopped working because I don't use Outlook for email. It doesn't matter that you have addresses in the Outlook Contacts folder; unless it is selected as your default email client, you can't use it as an address book. sigh Most of my letters fall into three categories: 1. Personal letters with no inside address. For these I have addressed envelopes and/or labels saved as doc files and use those. For my kids I actually have full sheets of addressed labels preprinted. 2. Business letters to a new recipient. This address wouldn't be in an address book, anyway, so it's just as easy to type it into a UserForm. 3. Business letters to a previous recipient, in which case I usually just pull up an old letter and use it as a "template." -- Suzanne S.
