You could put the bottom portion of the document (the part that must not
move) in a text box or frame with the position set as Bottom Relative to
Margin (or Page).
Alternatively, you could put the address fields in a table cell with Exact
row height, with alignment set to Bottom. If there are only three lines, you
get one more blank line between the inside address and the date.

Where my problem begins is with the client address. Some contain 3 lines
and
some 4 lines. The letters that have 3 lines are perfectly lined up, but
when
that 4th line pops in there it shifts the entire document down, which
messes
up the section that goes on the perforated part. Is there any way to keep
that section from moving? (I have tried a section break and it still
moves;
as it also does when I make that portion a footer.) Thank you for all
your
assistance.

I'm using Mail Merge to create a document that has a perferated
section at
the bottom of the page. The information in the bottom portion must
start
at
11.2" and cannot shift or it runs into the preprinted portion of the
form.
I've tried section breaks and also putting the bottom portion in the
footer,
but it still shifts based on how many lines are in the address of the
recipient of the letter. I merge hundreds of these letters and it is
very
time consuming to go through each letter to see the placement of the
bottom
section. Thank you!
