I'm recording this macro for someone who works in our church office whose computer skills are limited. She is very busy with multiple duties, and will stick with what she knows, such as keeping our members list up to date by typing in changes rather than doing a mail merge from an Excel workbook. But if I give her a word document with a macro such that all she has to do is click on it and generate labels for a mail out based on an Excel workbook that I am also creating for her, I am betting she will go along with what I am recommending. The office will run more efficiently.

Yes, if it were me doing her job, I wouldn't bother creating a macro by recording. This is an organizational issue more than a computer issue. You'll have to trust that what I am trying to do is what will work best with the people involved.
