Not really. What you want is to set up a template that includes your
letterhead, possibly in an IncludeText field, in the First Page Header.

Take a look at: How to set up letterhead or some other document where you
want one header on the first page and a different header on other pages.
http://www.addbalance.com/word/headersfooters.htm This gives step-by-step
instructions. (It also has the following links)

Some other pages to look at:

Letterhead Textboxes and Styles tutorial

Template Basics

How to Create a Template - Part 2 - essential reading

Word "Forms"
http://www.addbalance.com/word/wordw...rces.htm#Forms and

Word for Word Perfect Users
http://www.addbalance.com/word/wordperfect.htm if you are coming from a

WP
environment (or even if you are not).

If you are interested in creating templates that will work with the
letter
wizard or use that wizard, you should look at the chapter on Advanced
Document Formatting in Using Office 2003 (or whatever your version is),
Special Edition, by Ed Bott and Woody Leonhard. It has detailed

instructions
including instructions on getting the fields you want from your Outlook
Contacts for addressing a letter. (Chapter 19 of SE Using Office 2003)
You


should be able to get this through your public library or at Amazon.com
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/IS...ncecheckbookA/

Finally, take a look at the letter templates that come with Word. While

they
are no great shakes as letterhead, they do use styles and AutoText lists
very well. If you use the same style names that are used in those

templates
in your own letterhead for the same parts of the document, you will have
better luck with using the built-in AutoText entries in Word.

Hope this helps,

OK, another question from the newbie...I was just wondering if we are
doing
this correctly, we have our l/h saved in jpg or bmp format. Now to

insert
it
in a word document we've created a macro that will insert the picture
at
the
top of the page. Is this the correct way to do it??

thanks again
