At about 5:00 into your presentation, you give instructions for selecting recipients. When I select 'use an existing list' on my Mac and select the Excel file, a popup message appears warning me of a security risk. Since I am confident my file is not malicious, I select 'yes' to proceed. Then a popup menu appears showing the Excel document I'm opening and it asks for a 'cell range.' The half-tone default is 'entire worksheet.' Whether or not I accept that or enter a cell range, I can not access 'edit recipient list' following this step. I'm stuck here...

Thanks! I have found the same problem with some addresses. I think I have found a good solution: After you have done Select Recipients and Edit Recipient List, you need to go back to the Home tab. In the 'Styles' section, you should see Normal selected. You need to select No Spacing instead. Now follow the rest of my video - except where I say you need to press Shift and Enter, just press Enter. When you get to the end, it should produce labels with no spaces where the line is empty. Let me know if it works!

Excellent, comprehensive instructions that covers a few quirks in MSWORD that drove me nuts for years. First, the process used by WORD is not nearly as intuitive as other functions. Also, the need to "insert merge field" has to be used and closed with each field as no mechanism to add spaces or punctuation. Even more helpful is his hint to use SHIFT/ENTER to start new line in label. Without this critical but hidden trick, WORD will space lines too far apart... EXCELLENT help. Finally, the hint to NOT use typical print command in WORD as this will only print first page... Follow tutorial and engage FINISH/MERGE tab to engage printing... great help!!!!
