I'm creating an envelope in Word and using a contact from Outlook, how do I
make it always print the company name also of the person I selected from
Outlook?
 
I'm using Outlook and Word 2003
In a word document, I select envelope and then select my address book and
select the Name of the person I want on the envelope. It enters their name
and address, but not their company name - I want the company name inserted
also and i do not know how to have it do it without manually typing it in.

So did you read and try what I posted?
Seems to me you need to be creating your addresses to include the company.

Russ,
When I set up my contacts, I do enter the company name where it specifies.
And I did look at what you posted, but didn't really understand it - I'm not
an expert...... still can't figure out how to have it enter the company name
that is entered into the Contact info onto the envelope. If you could
explain it in laymans terms, maybe I can figure it out.
Thanks for your help.

I think modifying the AddressLayout in Word as described in that article is
your best bet. The results are somewhat unpredictable for the Envelope
Wizard, but most people find it works if the County/Region field is left
blank in the /Contact Record.
The only other alternative is to add the Company manually in the address you
designate as the Mailing Address.
