The merge wizards for 2003/7 are very similar, but if you avoid the wizards
the dialogs are much different.

Agreed! The cursor automatically going to the return address field
is what got me stumped in the first place. Viewing the merged data
in the return address location made for a beer drinking moment! One
other note, the "wizard" in both the 03 and 07 versions appear to be
the same for merging.

Note that the merge process puts a frame on the envelope formatted
with the envelope address paragraph style, but the cursor
automatically goes to the return address location. You need to
ensure that your mergefields go in the frame.
http://www.gmayor.com/changing_envelope_layout.htm (although aimed
at Word 2003) should help demonstrate the process. --

Ahhhh yes! with the Ctrl+Shift+8, it appears (Just like it is

Cool! Glad it's working out.

As for the pilcrows... Word can display "non-printing formatting
characters," such as the pilcrow, which represents a paragraph
mark. Little dots for spaces, little arrow for tabs, etc. They are
exceedingly handy for figuring out why a document is acting
strange, or exactly what's in your document. You can reveal/hide
them by pressing Ctrl+Shift+8, or by clicking the Show/Hide tool
in the Paragraph section of the Home tab. What might look like
white space might actually contain a number of
non-printing formatting marks. And, while they don't print, they
can sure get in the way at times. So, most of us long-time Word
users rely on them to know where the ghosts & skeletons are hidden.

Cheers,
