Word 2007 Demo: Part 3, Create mailing labels

[MagicalGirl23]

I have a problem if anyone knows the answer please help. After I insert my image the pointer / blinking line that let's you type things is at the bottom of my image. It won't let me move it to the top. Does anyone know how to change it so that I can type at the top next to the image like the demo shows.? Thanks!

2:07 shows that the text in box 1 is at the top mine shows it's at the bottom and will not move higher.

This is a great video. It walked me through it perfectly.

"position" is greyed out. Word can be sooooo frustrating

It seems that the advantage using "Address Block" instead of "Insert Merge Field" at 1:00 is that Word will automatically arrange the fields for each label according to conventions for how to write address for the individual countries.

For example, in Denmark postal code is written before the city name, like "2750 Ballerup", but for other countries it would be written in reverse order. Word is intelligent, and looks at the country field to determine the correct order, I think.

Holy crap, notice the checkbox "Format address according to the destination country/region" in the "Address Block" dialog.

When you check it, and you write a Japanese address it will write country first, then address, then name.

This is because that is how one writes it in Japan. But this is not what I want when I send from outside Japan to Japan.

But if I uncheck the checkbox, the postal code and city will be in wrong order...

Holy cow... I have now been struggling with this for 2 days :-\
