printing addresses

[penfold379]

i need to compile a list of approx 180/200 addresses and then print them monthly onto envelopes. the list needs to be in alphabetical order, over the course of the month i would add or delete quite a few addresses but would need them to remain in alphabetical order. i have been told that mail merger would be best. could someone explain this to me thanks.

It depends upon how you are holding the base data for the addresses you are mailing to. If this is in some form of flat file (i.e. a database or excel format) then yes a mail merge is the best way of doing this as you can sort the records before merging.
What a mail merge does is allow you to select from a data source and then send a standard letter (or in this case print a list of labels) from that data source.
A basic Microsoft Office (or Microsoft works) course should explain how to do this.
