How can I print 100 envelopes WITH BARCODES at a time in MS Word 2003 with
the SAME destination address? These will all have the same destination
address and thus the same destination barcode.

I go to Tools | Letters & Mailings | Envelopes & Labels | Print. Currently,
I have to print them ONE at a time because there is no option to select a
quantity. It amazes me that Microsoft does not have a quantity option for
this feature. How can I print 100 envelopes WITH THE BARCODE to the same
destination address when there is no QUANTITY selector? I want to print 100
envelopes to someone I write all the time.

I know I can print 100 envelopes by going to File | Page Setup | Paper |
Comm Env # 10, however when doing this it does NOT give the barcode option.

As the barcode function in Word is allegedly not compatible with the US
postal authorities requirements, there really is not much point using it.
However if you insist you can add an envelope to a document and print that
page as many times as you like.
or
You can use a template. there's a #10 sample with barcode that you can
download from my web site

Use the Envelopes & Labels dialog, but DO NOT click Print. Instead,
click Add to Document. In the resulting document, use File > Print,
select Current Page, and set the quantity.

BTW, the PostNet barcode that Word prints is obsolete. You might as
well not bother printing it.
