I LOATHE IT!!!! Chat Icon

Please tell me what I am doing wrong and why I am so stubborn to let it work for me?!

I can handle docs and even creating things with pics and text boxes and all that whooplah.

My major problem is with labels! I cannot for the life of me figure out why labels on MS word are so difficult for me! Chat Icon

I used to have Corel and using Avery labels and editing and printing them was so easy and uncomplicated.

I would consider myself intermediate computer literate. I create things, write my own html code, make cards, type letters, make flyers... I just do not get the retardation in my brain with the MS labels and mail merge wizard thing!

Am I nuts or is it on the complicated side?Chat Icon

Re: If you are an MS Word Pro and LOVE it, please come in!

I'm doing the mailing list for my dad's 5k run and adding new names from last year is proving to be a PIA! Plus now that I have the new Windows Vista, everything I knew is out the window!

After this year, I really want to find a better system for the directory and label list! And not MS word!!!

Can you type it into excel and then do a mail merge into word to do the labels?

I did type it in exel but now this year after I got a new computer with Windows Vista, my exels went bye bye!

There was some exel like list that I was able to access but the fields were all messed up so when it came time to merge to labels, I had to manually edit each one to get the address lines in the right place! I did it, it's done and now I have another year to come up with a better system!
