I've been going through the "Printing Envelopes" section of the
"Printing with Writer" chapter and have a question and a request
for the list.
The question is: can I use mail merge to create a series of
envelopes to be printed? If so, how? It's not in the mail merge
chapter, and I don't see anything obvious in the mail merge
wizard, which seems to do only letters or emails. I confess I
haven't taken the time to dig around on my own; I'm hoping
someone can save me the trouble by pointing me in the right
direction -- or, even better, writing something on this topic for
the Printing chapter.
The request is: would someone (Rob, perhaps?) please write a
section for the Printing chapter on how to use the
database/table/database field boxes on the Envelope tab of the
Envelope dialog? I don't have time to write it, but I think it
should be included in the chapter... starting with a very short
bit about connecting to a data source so it shows up in the
Database list in that dialog.
The latest version of this chapter is here:

Thanks!
