It includes Word, Powerpoint, Excel and something else I have never used, and forget what its call, it does not include Outlook. I just ordered MS Office Home Student for $124.99 free shipping form Amazon.com. Heck, and I just, with the help of friends on the web forums, managed to set Open Office as the default application for doc. ppt. and xls. I know my wife will be happy to have MS Office back on her machine, MS has really outdone itself (money mongers that they are) in making Office available for home use at a reasonable price, keeping in mind I can install it on both my and my wife's machine, plus another home machine, for the $125 price tag.

Zoey, Depending on how your labels are set up, there are several ways to insert a border around each one. If each label is a cell within a table, you can add a border around each cell by clicking Table/Table Properties, then the Table tab, then click Borders & Shading at the bottom. Click "all" at the left to put a border around all cells. Choose the type of border you want and click OK. This probably won't come out right though if you're using sheets of adhesive backed labels, because the borders will probably end up right on the edge of the label. If your labels are set up so that they are just regular lines of text with tabs separating them, you can add a border by drawing a box around each "label" and then formatting the box. You can "skootch" the boxes around by selecting the box and then using the arrow keys to move it (hold down Ctrl to move it just a pixel or two at a time). Copy and paste to each "label." (This method is a lot of work if you have pages and pages of labels.) If the boxes come out so that they are printing on top of your text or causing the text to "move" to another spot, do this: select the box, right click, click "Format Auto Shape" and on the Layout tab, click "behind text."

Hi Thurman, I remember at the same time last year reading one of your post in regards to your SD coming to your home for the holidays and how it was stressing you out. I have continued reading your posts since then and i always finding interesting you cuz your situation reminds me alot of my relationship with my oldest SD. For years and years and years, she has always managed to get me upset with her attitude towards me, constantly laughing at my English, constantly ignoring me when i would take part in a conversation, always, always, always getting what she wanted from DH even if what she asked for had a negative effect on DH's and I relationship. I've seen myself having to cancel an entire holidays to please SD's demands and wants. Believe it or not i've had to go for counseling because of her; i believe i've read every single book there is to be read on detachment, disengaging, etc. I honestly thought i was going crazy because of her; i couldn't believe that even though i am practically twice her age, that this person had such a negative effect on me! Last April, enough was enough. I got the book that was suggested on this forum called The Dance of Anger and i went away for 8 days. Never called home. I spent this time taking care of myself and making the decision that i would not take part in this person's life ANYMORE unless i had to! When she came over to our house, i would not even invite her to sit down. (I figured her father could do that or that she was old enough to take a chair and sit down; i did not go out and buy her a birthday card/gift like i have been doing for the last 18 years; i did not invite her to the cottage; i did not answer the phone when i knew she was calling and most importantly i tried doing all of these things without feeling guilty for once and remembering that i was doing it for ME, for my mental health, because i did not need a person like her to disturb my emotional, physical, and spiritfual health. I didn 't care what DH thought. I really didn't. If it meant putting an end to 18 yrs of our lives together, so be it! I' ve told him often that the relationship between his daughter and i was what it was because of him, that for far too long he had let her disrespect me because of his ''guilty feelings'' he had to deal with! I always told DH that if i had had a daughter who would have disrespected him the way his oldest daughter has disrespected me (after 14 yrs of knowing, on the day of her wedding everybody and their dog had a corsage, but me. And yet, i had gone to the bank with the father to get a loan so WE could give her some $ for a wedding gift. She had NEVER, NEVER thanked me for the wedding gift. Oh well!), I would have literally slapped him across the head. Since last April, this SD had called me for Mothers'Day (first time in 18 yrs.) Since last April, this SD has offered me a birthday gift and a nice card with truly nice words in them especially for me. Since last April, this SD has even called me home to tell me there was something being shown in tv that she knows i love and wanted to make sure i knew it was on TV. I could go on and on and ...but what i am trying to say is once i truly made an effort to disengage from her, from her nastiness and all and started thinking about my health in terms of my relationship with her, things started changing for the best! In fact, i can hardly believe this SD who for years and years has been disrespectful towards me.....is starting to see/feel/know that she no longer has a hold on me! When she would talk and we were all around, i would not even reply to her remarks, comments or anything that came out of her mouth. I acted like she didn't exist. This being said, there are still times like tonight, when i know she will be at our house, that i get a little uptight!But i keep reminding myself that i don't have to stay in the same room she is in; i don't have to sit there and entertain her(Her father can do that. I've done that way too long!). I do what is best for me. I can only hope that this year, you will truly truly make an effort to go away with or without your son while this SD is visiting your home during Xmas. Do it! You won't regret it! Keep posting!

In MS Word, choose the correct template for the return address labels. When typing your address in the box, make sure to space enough times at the front of each line to leave room for the design. Then click on printing all the labels on the page and they will all type the correct way.
