[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

Note that the font name is Lucida (as in "clear"), not Lucinda.

Thanks! It didn't work exactly that way, but by clicking the Font box
under
the Styles heading, I was able to get it to hold the Lucinda. Now I know
what to do if it changes itself back again.

You need to modify the Envelope Address and Envelope Return styles to use
Lucida Sans. See http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/styl...ifyAStyle.html
(note that access to styles is a little different in Word 2007; you may
need
to open the Manage Styles dialog to find these styles).

Can anyone tell me how to make Word 2007 accept my preferred font (in
this
case, Lucinda Sans) for the Mailings address and return address boxes?
I
set
the font, size, etc., that I want, tell it I want this as the default
and
click OK -- and then it goes right back to the basic serif font, which
I
dont
want. I did succeed in fixing this once and it held for a while, but
now
it
won't hold, even whien it shows Lucinda Sans on the screen as the
default.
I've installed my old Word 2002 and use it for addresses, but obviously
I'd
like to do it all in the same program.
