Create a Label
I need simple directions for creating a Shipping Label in MS Word 2007. I
want it to have a colored border, a return address, and a TO: space to add the address. I am not using Avery labels -- just want to print it out on plain paper. When I have a package to mail, I would like to click on the label I've created on my desktop and insert the address from my contacts in Outlook 2007. (I see from the posts that you can't create a label in Outlook.) I can't seem to get label templates to work anyway. Could only get the return address to print out. I must be missing something here. At any rate, I'd rather design my own label. |

Create a Label
Make a table the size that you want. Add borders in the colors you want.
Save the file. Fill it the text you want where you want it. Pam chaucersmom wrote: I need simple directions for creating a Shipping Label in MS Word 2007.

Create a Label
See http://www.gmayor.com/Macrobutton.htm and the information there about
inserting data from Outlook. If you want to see this in action, download the envelope samples from my web site. Save one of the automated samples to your desktop then double click it. Actually if you open the template change the page size of the envelope to the page size of your shipping label, add the border and move the address block, the work is done for you. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org chaucersmom wrote: Ok, I can do that part now.
