Delivery Point Barcode - Mail Merge

[Guest]

I am mail merging about 700 differently addressed envelopes and would like to
put a delivery point barcode on each. I tried to do this through tools -
envelopes and labels, etc., but it only changes the first envelope. Is there
anyway to do this?

Don't bother. The BARCODE field in Word produces bar codes that are not
compliant with USPS requirements, so they do not qualify for bulk mailing
rates, and they are not needed for ordinary first class. See “The POSTNET
bar code that Word generates no longer qualifies for USPS bulk mailing
discounts†at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=897290
