Default Mail Merge issue with Return Label and Foreign Address

Two issues:
1. I have gone through the whole Mail Merge online course, and gone through
all of Help on Envelopes, and can't find anything that addresses how the
Return Address is populated. I can only find focus on the Recipients. (????)
2. I have a Japanese address that is in my Data File for populating an
Envelope, and all the fields are the same as far as the rest (Name, Last
Name, etc.). When I do a preview of the Envelope, it is completely Reversed!!
My first line on the envelope is 'JAPAN' instead of last, and so on until it
ends with the first name at the bottom!!
Any help with this??

Default Mail Merge issue with Return Label and Foreign Address

The return address would normally not change from label to label or envelope
to envelope so you may as well just enter the address directly from the
keyboard in the location and configuration that you want.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, but not sure why the comment about why I should reply to the
newsgroup, since I thought that is what this is, or am I mistaken? Isn't this
just a discussion group?

You have read Doug's standard sig bloick, which he has inserted as a
reminder to conduct discussions here, as some people think we have nothing
better to do than reply privately to anyone who posts a question.

If you need to use different return addresses - see
