<snip> I can't advise on Quickbooks either but I think what David is referring to when he mentions blank pages is that to design an envelope you do Insert>Envelope and can, if you are not careful, end up with a *two* page document - a blank page followed by the envelope. The trick is to delete the blank page before printing the envelope. To avoid having to remember to do this each time, set up and save an envelope *template* which has the blank page removed. Mine has my own details in a tiny font top left and I copy/paste the addressee's details from the letter I'm writing into a text box correctly placed in the envelope for the purpose. Alternatively, when printing the envelope, do File>Print and choose to print only page 2. Note that this facility is *not* available from the Print button on the main tool bar which prints directly without any dialogues. -- Harold Fuchs London, England Please reply *only* to [email protected]
