Default Hi...Two Question Concerning Envelopes via MailMerge...

I'm fairly new at this, but I did manage to figure out how to get the return
address and merged delivery info on each envelope. That was pretty easy.
Two questions:

a) On the main delivery info, Word puts an "ADDRESS BLOCK" in the middle,
but the text is LOWER on the envelope than I would like it. How can I change
that (move it up a bit - for all envelopes)?

b) I want to put a byline - colored text on the bottom on every envelope.

- How can I do that? Tried to space around address block, and it wouldn't.

- How can I merge "first name" as the first word in this bottom byline?

Thanks!!

An update...

I was able to figure out everything EXCEPT for the following:

How can I merge "first name" as the first word in this bottom byline?

This "byline" is actually a footer at the bottom of the envelope. I can't
figure out how to merge a record's first name at the satrt of the line.

Thanks...

Well, I guess I should have waited. Figured that one out, too. In the
footer, I inserted a field code - {MERGEFIELD First_Name}. That did the
trick. No need to bookmark, styleref, etc.

Hopefully, this info can help others, too.
