If the addressee information is the first thing on the page (outside the
heading) then it can be positioned with unique paragraph styles and document
editing will not change that position. However, you can always rely on a
user to screw anything up

The overall objective is to have the address positioned as such, that
when the document is edited the address stays in the same location.
Then when the document is printed it is folded and the mailing
address is visible through the envelope. That is all we want to
accomplish.
Thanks for the suggestions!

Not completely accurate... the fact is that an object *cannot* be
anchored to a page in Word because Word has no physical page
structure.
The steps described are as close as you can get, but the absolute
positioning on the page pertains to the "page" containing the
*paragraph* to which the object is anchored. As long as that text is
on the same page the object will stay put, but if that para flows to
a different page the object will go with it and assume a possition
on *that* page based on the Picture Position settings.
To the OP: If possible you really should do this sort of fixed
layout work in a program that supports it, such as Publisher. Even
in Word there are other approaches that probably will work better if
you supply more detail on what your overall objective is.

Create a text box
Right click on Text box border | Format Text box...
Layout | Advanced
Picture Position Tab
Horizontal | Absolute Position | to the right of | Select Page
Vertical | Absolute Position | below | Select Page
This will lock your text box in the position on the page no matter
how the text is edited on the rest of the page.
