RE: Mail Merge

Hi Sally, thanks for your query. The Letter Wizard was phased out post Word 2003, so I'm afraid it's a matter of manually entering the addresses. However, if you've built a letter using the wizard in an earlier version, change the file name extension to *.dot and put it in your Templates folder and generate the letter from the template. The address should be correctly and consistently positioned from then on.

Hope this helps,

Anthony

Word tip:

Change the Print button so it brings up the Print dialogue box

If you want to bring up the Print dialogue box to check your print settings when you hit the Print button, do the following:

1. Right-click on the toolbar that displays the Print button.

2. Select Customise.

3. Click on the Print button on the toolbar to select it, then hold the left mouse button down and drag the button towards the screen below. The button should come off the toolbar.

4. In the Customise dialogue box on your screen, select the Commands tab.

5. Select File from the Categories list, and then locate the Print... icon (looks like the normal Print button, but the word Print has three dots following it).

6. Click on the Print... icon to select it, then use your left mouse to drag and drop the icon onto the toolbar at the top of the screen.

7. Close the Customise dialogue box.
