I'd appreciate your help in getting this to work. I have a mailing of 200 letters to go out early this week. The letter is ready to go, if I can just get the envelopes to print with an address on them. Thanks. Pat

XPHOME How much memory(RAM) is in your computer ? 384 MB RAM What were you doing when OpenOffice.org crashed ? TRYING TO SET UP THE ENVELOPES. EACH TIME IT DIDN'T WORK I CLOSED THE DOCUMENT AND OPENED ANOTHER ONE TO TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT. BY THE TIME I HIT THE 4TH OR 5TH DOCUMENT IT CRASHES. IT'S CRASHED ABOUT 5 TIMES NOW DOING THIS - TRYING TO GET ENVELOPES TO WORK. WHAT NO ONE HAS TOLD ME IS HOW TO GET THE ENVELOPES TO CONNECT TO THE DATABASE. I HAVE LOOKED IN FAQ, HELP AND OTHER SUPPORT AREAS AND SAW OTHER PEOPLE COMPLAINING THAT THIS FEATURE IS HARD TO USE. NO WHERE IN YOUR DOCUMENTATION OR HELP DOES IT TALK ABOUT LINKING TO THE DATABASE, AS IN LABELS. ISN'T IT THE SAME CONCEPT? > I'm trying to print envelopes (ha. ha.) but I > can't figure out how to get it to load my database file so I can preview > that actual envelope with the address.
