MS Office Forum / Word / Document Management / May 2007How do I setup Address Layout in Word 2007?
In Word 2003, you could control how the data from Outlook Contacts appeared when you imported it to a letter or envelope (name, title, company, address, etc) by using "AddressLayout." Once you coded it, you highlighed the text, clicked on "Insert", clicked on the "AutoText" then clicked on "New." Then you clicked OK and you were done. In Word 2007, I cannot find this on the menus. I found how to add "auto text" to the toolbar, but it does not have a "new" option. Can anyone helP? QuickParts is the name in Word 2007. On Ribbon select Tab Insert QuickParts Building Blocks Organiser This may be what you are looking for. I am not sure if you are talking about availability of addresslayout default autotext option or the ability to save and play autotext as you did in 2003 and previous versions. AutotextName press F3 still plays QuickParts (autotext). www.docsliveonline.com > In Word 2003, you could control how the data from Outlook Contacts > appeared [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Can anyone helP? I guess I know less than I thought I did! I found insert/quickparts/save selection to quickparts gallery and saved the text as "AddressLayout". But when I try to fill in the address for an envelope, it does not transfer company name or title. My objective is to draw from Outlook and address an envelope with name, title, company and address. Any further advice? > In Word 2003, you could control how the data from Outlook Contacts appeared > when you imported it to a letter or envelope (name, title, company, address, [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > Can anyone helP? Sorry, I have not checked whether LayoutAddress entry still works with Outlook 2007 as yet - you could perhaps try Outlook Public group to see if someone there knows. And check back for further responses to your query. >I guess I know less than I thought I did! > [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] >> >> Can anyone helP? I am somewhat new to 2007 and find its use like wading though treacle, but it appears the AddressLayout trick doesn't work (or at least I can't get it to work). The macro code to read Outlook at http://www.gmayor.com/Macrobutton.htm still works with Word 2007 as do the envelope templates available for download from my web site.

Yes Graham it does as do yours. I just tried with Insert Address in 2007 and it works as per usual. Glad someone is on the ball (it's definitely not me..) >I am somewhat new to 2007 and find its use like wading though treacle, but >it appears the AddressLayout trick doesn't work (or at least I can't get it [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] >>> >>> Can anyone helP? Hmmm. There were issues with earlier Word versions where some users found the AddressLayout trick worked and others didn't. There's a KB article about it. Suffice to say I have tested it here and cannot get it to work on my PC. I am not losing too much sleep about it ;) Signature<>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> > Yes Graham it does as do yours. > I just tried with Insert Address in 2007 and it works as per usual.
