How can I create envelopes from a letter merge that I have already printed -
without going out and re-creating the recipients?

Just use the same datasource that you used to create the letters.

Thanks Doug. The data source I used had 400+ names in it and when I opened
it I only selected 50+ of them. I "cleared all" then put checks in front of
the one I wanted. Then I printed my letters. Is there a way I can now just
print thouse 50+ envelopes (to go along with the 50+ letters) without going
through and opening the 400+ data source and re-selecting the 50+ all over
again???

Not really. But for next time, do an initial mailmerge with a catalog (or
XP and 2003, directory) type mailmerge main document when you put the
mergefields inside the cells of a single row table. When you execute that
merge, you will get a table with one row of data for each of the selected
records in the data source. Now, insert a row at the top of that table and
insert some field names in that and then save and use that document as the
datasource for both your letters and their envelopes.
