Default Word 2007 newbie question on labels

Hopefully someone can help with this...



For years I have been very happy with Word 2002, but have now upgraded to 2007.

I used to print a sheet of labels with our logo on it and then print singles with the customer address as I need them using the Tools>Envelopes & Labels and then simply saying which label I wanted to print (row/column)...so easy! I seem to remember starting with a standard label (Avery 8163) and printing the logo. I must have made some changes to it to accommodate the address location.

But now, I can't figure out what I did in order to get the address to print below the logo, or even how to print individual labels with our logo and customer address. I only need to print one label at a time.

It was so easy before...now it's a nightmare! Although I would prefer to do it the same way I always did, if I have to print each label individually, how would I be able to do that with the logo? I looked at the Avery website, but it was of little help to me. (They actually say the labels are only supposed to go through the printer once...what???)

Any help would be appreciated.

I don't remember this ever being easy.

See Insert logos /graphics on business cards and mailing labels by Graham Mayor.

I would recommend creating your own template once you get it the way you want it.

Well, I was able to insert the logo into a sheet of labels, however, I already had that and that's what I would print the whole sheet of labels from.

What I want to do is use that printed sheet, but using the label printing button, just print a single (preprinted) label and put one customer name on at a time, whether it's the first label in the first column, or the fourth label in the second column. I used to be able to do that and it lined up perfectly. I must have adjusted either the label size, or the pitch, or something in order for it to do that. It was many years ago when I did it and I just don't remember what I did and didn't think to look at it before the program was deleted from my computer.

I agree with Charles it wasn't easy, but I think I used to do something like this with a table. Once I'd designed the table so that the cells lined up with the stationery, I'd add the graphic and the address in the appropriate cell each time I needed to print a label. An entiremy manual process, but it usually worked.
