ENVELOPE ISSUE
Hi,
I want to create mail merge envelopes from an excel doc. Following the wizard steps, when I get to the last step (preview), nothing shows on the envelope, even though I have the proper number of recipients. Any idea? Thanks! |

ENVELOPE ISSUE
The merge wizard is not very helpful when creating Envelope merges.From what
I can see, it does not format the envelope correctly, by default. You need to know something about envelope formatting in order to use it - see http://www.gmayor.com/changing_envelope_layout.htm You should also avoid using the addressblock field, as this creates as many problems as it solves. Use the individual fields from your data file. You may find it helpful to start with an envelope document created from a template (you can download a suitable template from my web site) and use the method at http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm to create your merge document (simply change the merge type from labels to envelope). -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Ced wrote: Hi, I want to create mail merge envelopes from an excel doc.
