I'm having a problem trying to run multiple envelopes
with different addresses. This was one of my favorite
features of Word 97 on account of the money I could save
on labels in large mailings.

I still have all my old master lists created for multiple
envelope printing in MS 97 and would like to be able to
keep using these. I can still go in and replace all
paragraph marks with the asterisk, but when I go into
Mail Merge on XP, it won't let me create the envelopes
like I did before. Any help out there?

Ps. I hope Microsoft simplifies this process considerably
in its next release of Word.

Word 2002 changed a few things in mail merge but essentially it works as
before. The following link should help you get the measure of the changes
and show you how to work as before:
