Question Avery Label Template for Word 2003?

I'm running Word 2003 under Windows XP Home.



I'm trying to find the Avery file folder label template for Avery product 5230. I swear I used to have it in my installation of Word, but now can't find it. I'm an old guy and my memory is failing.

And when I visit the Avery website to search for that template, the website keeps trying to download a file with the spooky sounding name:

OffercastInstaller_AVR_U-0238-01-P_.exe



That filename sounds suspiciously like malware. All I want is a simple printing template. I don't want to have to install some program I know nothing about.

I'd be grateful for some advice on how find the template I'm looking for.

Keep in mind that I'm using an old version of Word, that lacks the ribbon.

Avery 5230 and its equivalents were not programmed in Word 2003 as you have undoubtedly discovered. The best way to handle this is to create a new custom format in the label options.

In the meantime the attached should do the job.

Amplifying Graham's answer...
Labels in Word are Tables. You will want to show table gridlines to manipulate them.
