add extra text in address bar
I want an address on the envelope to read
John Doe or current Resident 123 main st anywhere, usa 90050 I can use the wizard and create it quite nicely WITHOUT ' or current resident.' I added a field to my excel file called 'tenant' when I went back to use Match Field I chose tenant to go in the field under last name. When I preview those that should have 'or current residen' they don't have anything. what am I doing wrong? I am using Word 2007 on a 64 bit machine. |

I just figured it out.
I used insert merge field and created the address from scratch. Are there other easier ways to do it?

No - had you waited until I got up this morning, that is what I would have
recommended. You can save the block of fields you have created as an autotext entry for ease of re-use. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Vivian H. wrote: I just figured it out.

Thanks for the suggestion. I hadn't thought about saving as an autotext entry.
