Thxs for your reply.

For 99.99% of all my work I do need the header. It puts path & file name in
the top left in small font & today's date in the top right. No problem with
envellopes, Word is smart enough to realize that envelopeds don't get headers
& footers.

It's only when I use that Step by Step Mail Wizard, that even though I
specify 'Envelopes' inists on adding the header.

After I wrote my original question, I edited normal.dotm & deleted the
header & footer from it. (To be put right back in, the moment I was done
with this once a year thing.)Now The file name & date no longer appear, but,
an about 5/8 in. top margin is still there, putting the return address way
too low.

I could print the envelopes individually, bypassing the wizard, & all would
be fine. But, that defeats the purpose.

How can I stop the wizard from imposing that top margin or header?

Again, any help would be appreciated.

You should not put a header and/or footer in the normal.dot template.
Rather, create another template containing those features and use that
template for the documents that you create for which you want the features.

In Word 2007, my normal.dot includes a header. When writing letters &
ending
an Envelope to the document, everything works fine. The header & footer
appear on all text pages, but not on the envelope.

Trying to print envelopes for Xmas cards: Mailing Start Mail Merge
Step
by Step Mail Merge Wizard, I specify under document Type 'Envelopes'.
Going
ahead, all envelopes get a header & a footer, which makes no sense,
apparently based on my normal.dotx.

How can I delete these headers & footers?

Any advice would be appreciated.
