Envelopes?

Hi Techies, Just a quick question. I'm using QB 2007 pro. Is there a simple way to print envelopes? Not letters, just envelopes. In previous versions I've gone into the vendor center and copied the vendor address and pasted it into word to print my my envelopes. Not a problem just a bit cumbersome. I was just curious if there was a way to print envelopes from within QuickBooks. Tnx, Dusty

Follow these simple steps:

Create a template in Write Letters:

1.. From the QuickBooks Activity menu, choose Write Letters, select Design QuickBooks Letters, and then click Next. 2.. From the "Choose what you want to do" window, select Create a Letter from Scratch, and then click Next. 3.. From the "Choose who you are creating the letter for" window, enter something like "Customer Envelopes" in the Name the Letter box, choose the appropriate list of names, and then click Create Letter. 4.. In Microsoft Word, from the File menu, select Page Setup. 5.. On the Margin tab, set all margins to 0.5", click the Paper tab, from the Paper size drop-down list, choose Envelope #10 4-1/8 x 9-1/2, choose Landscape as the Orientation, and then click OK. 6.. On the "QuickBooks Letter Fields for all Names" toolbar, click Insert My Company Fields, and then choose the appropriate return address for the envelope (My Company Name, My Legal Company Name and My Company's Full Address). This enters the return address on the upper left corner. 7.. Press enter 7 times to move to the addressee line. 8.. From the Format menu, choose Paragraph, set the Left Indentation to 4.0", and then click OK. 9.. From the QuickBooks toolbar, select "Insert Name Fields", and then choose Full Address. 10.. From the File menu, click Save as, and then save to the appropriate QuickBooks Letters directory (make sure that the "subdirectory type" is correct; that is All Names or Employees etc.). 11.. Quit Microsoft Word and return to QuickBooks. 12.. From Activities, choose Write Letters, select "Prepare Another Type of Letter" (or Prepare a Collection Letter, if you wish to use envelopes only for customers that meet certain criteria), and then click Next. 13.. From the "Select a letter to use", choose the new template, and then click Next. 14.. Continue through the Wizard's windows, enter the appropriate information, and then click Create Letters. 15.. Load the envelopes into the printer, from the Microsoft Word File menu select Print Preview, and then select Print.

I'm also amazed. I would have simply gone to Staples and invested a few bucks for a box of window envelopes.
