I am trying to merge labels from an excel doc to a word doc and these are the
steps I am taking.
Go into Word and select tools
then mail merge
then select labels
then start from existing document
then click open which then a box that says File Conversion comes up and
wants me to select Windows (Default) or MS-DOS or Other Encoding. All of
these options if selected are scrambling the letters and nothing is readable.
Any suggestions?

I think that there may be a converter that you do not have installed. From
the Control Panel, select Add/Remove Programs and go through the process of
modfying the Office installation and you should be given the opportunity to
install the converter.
