[aprilvalentine]

I'm not super familiar with using Word to do things other than just making normal fic documents. I'm trying to make business cards with it right now. I found a template and have sort of been able to type in the text boxes to enter the contact information I want in there, but I notice that when I do so, it only puts it into the first card on the

Oh, good idea. I think I'll try that. I believe I've used the Avery templates before. Thanks.

That Word template is a nightmare to use (if it's the same one I battled with).

I set up my document in Tables in Word, then copied and pasted the information as many times as needed. It's not the easiest way to do it, but once it's set up it works a treat.

Ugh, yeah, it's not user friendly for sure. I don't know how to set up a document in Tables in Word either so after putzing around with it awhile, I finally broke down and bought a copy of Print Shop which is a dream to use -- I had a copy years ago and decided why not get the new one. I am also making a brochure for my mug business with it too and when I took my new biz cards to work, a co-worker asked me to make some for her. So I'm happy I invested in the program that I like so much and now don't have to struggle with Word. Comes from being so used to Mac programs and not usually working with Word in the past, lol. Thanks for the tip though. :)
