Default mailmerge labels line spacing

I managed to get the macro created and saved, but I don't know how to put it
into a template that is saved in the word/startup folder. My templates are
stored in c:\docs and settings\username\application
data\microsoft\templates\*.dotm

Can I add it to the normal template (how?) so that it makes everything
always single spaced? (I already change the default line spacing when I
first install office 2007 onto their machines. If I can just copy my a
normal.dotm file onto their machines, that would be a fairly easy workaround.)

Use Shift+Enter instead of Enter to create each new line in the label
content. Then the 5.5pt space before will only apply to the first line of
the label and99.9% of the time will not cause a problem.

Alternatively, put the following macro in a template that you save in the
Word\Startup folder and it will run when the user propagates the label
setup, changing the spacebefore to 0 and also overcoming a problem that
occurs if the user is using a Tablet PC or a PC that has "tablet like"
functionality available.
