I have a floppy containing a list of addresses that I am trying to print for
a mass mailing. The file is in .dbf format, and I have not had any success
using either Word or Access. Any help would be appreciated.

Copy the file to the hard drive first. Provided the file is a dbase format
table you should be able to use it in either Access or Word to produce
labels. The general principles of label merges are explained at
