I want to use Word or Excel to create a mailing list of approximate 70 names and addresses (Christmas card mailing list). I've tried several solutions external to Office.none have worked. From what I read, even Office has problems with label alignment, but thought I'd ask in case someone has solved this problem using Office for Mac 2011. I'm not particular which Avery address label I use, just so it's one that's the typical address size of about 1' x 2.6' (like the 5160). The 5160 is actually in Office for Mac, but there aren't many others in that database. Any help would be appreciated.
