Usually we let the receiver of the block post pictures so as they can be surprised when their block gets home. But if the receiver asks that the maker post a picture they can

If anyone needs the newer version of excel format just let me know and I will save and send it to you. I always save as a 97-2003 version because a lot of people I know do not have the newer version of excel.

It is the craziest thing. I open the file and save it to my documents but when I go to mail merge it is not there! It did the same thing w/ the new version April sent me. It must be something I'm doing wrong so I just gave up and copied and pasted every line on my Avery label template, took a little time but better than writing it all out, so now I have labels! Yay
April, thanks for resending. I hope you are feeling better!!!

Thanks for posting it Ruth!

Merge instructions
old cat lady so glad you are in this time! Can you tell me what page the boom 6 version of the mail merge instructions are on. I have asked for the old instructions several times and I dont think anyone is seeing myn plea..so if you can just tell me what page the boom 6 instructions are on or approximately I can find them,,,there are just so many pages. I dontb want to copy and paste to each label..I dont work with excel much and that sounds pretty hard too. I am so sorry to ask this of you,,
