Default Getting label templates to show outlines

My Word 2003 label templates work in Word 2016--but the outlines showing where each label is are missing. Is there any way to make them visible? Or must I reinstall Word 2003 to get that feature.



Working through the Mailings menu is not convenient or adequate for the labels i want to make.

Click the layout tab and make sure View Gridlines is selected.

On my Word 2016, Show Gridlines is on the View tab rather than Layout. And checking it either superimposes a uniform grid on the entire page or does nothing at all. It does not show the label outlines.

I have a screenshot of the View tab,

The layout tab appears and shows the View Gridlines when a Table or Label Template is being used.
The Gridlines (not the same type of 'gridlines') option in the View tab, is only a grid for alignment purposes, not necessarily labels.
