[Pizzeria]

I am making a mailing list of customers addresses. I own a pizzeria and at
the end of the night I take the order slips and type the addresses of
customers who ordered that day into microsoft word. After a few weeks of
doing this I am getting a lot of repeats. How do I avoid this?

If you're doing it in Word, make each address its own paragraph,
select all the paragraphs, and choose Sort (Word2007: Home tab;
Word2003 and earlier, Table menu [they don't need to be in a table]).

Then when you want to add a new one, just go to where it would fit in
and see if it's already there.

If you might ever want to make mailing labels, though, it would make
sense to learn to do an Address Book in Outlook or an Excel table that
Word can hook into.
