I've figured out how to print the same address on the
entire sheet of labels using the Avery label tool, but
does anyone know if I can print an entire sheet of
different addresses?

I have yet to figure out how to create a sheet of
different addresses in Word. I am told to create a
database and then do a merge to the labels. Honestly, I
don't have a use for a database or have the time to create
a database each time I need to create a sheet of labels.
I use WordPerfect which give me no trouble unlike Word.
So, in answering your question, you could create a
database then merge to labels.
This is one of the many problems with Word.
 
In Tools | Envelopes and Labels, click the button for New Document. This
will give you a sheet of labels. They're set up as a table, so be sure you
have table gridlines displayed (Table | Show Gridlines) so you can see the
label boundaries.

I'm trying to figure out how to make a sheet of labels all of the same address. How did you do it? Thanks.
 
Varies slightly depending on which version of Word you have (which is always
a good idea to mention in a post). Click the "Tools" menu, select "Letters
and mailings", "Envelopes and labels" (just "Envelope and Labels" in earlier
versions), click the "Labels" TAB, click the :Options button to select which
type of label you have, click the "Full page of the same label" option, type
your label information, then click the "New Document" button.
