Thanks for the 2 comments but I am referring to a list from Excel and I wish
to use that list to make letters, not labels. The letter is done. I just have
to merge all of my thousands of addresses into the one letter. I really do
need help. Thanks.
 
The feature you want is called "mail merge". Go to the Help section in Word
and type that in. The step-by-step instructions are in the topic called, "Use
mail merge to create and print letters and other documents".
 
The principle is exactly that at
http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_labels_with_word_xp.htm except you use
your letter as a source document (rather than a label template) into which
you add the fields from your Excel data file. Create a separate merge for
your envelopes. If there are 'thousands' of addresses, you may find it
helpful to break the data list into smaller more manageable groups.
