List to Labels

[Guest]

I have a list of names and addresses in Word 2003. Would like to convert it
to a page of Avery 5160 labels. How?
I know I can set up a page of blank labels and copy each entry which is OK
for a short list, but would like a better solution in case I have hundreds of
entries in the list.
Thanks in advance.

You need to convert that Word document to an Excel spreadsheet then do a
mail merge. Life will be much easier. There's a bit of work that needs to be
initially but then it's simple to maintain it.

It doesn't need to go into Excel - merge is happier with it as a Word table.

True. I guess I'm just more accustomed to dealing with my mailing lists in
Excel.
