Ruth, I maintain a list of about 400 names for the local Disabled American Veterans in Excel. I can't do any real tricky sorting, probably because I don't know how. I have been very successful in doing merge to Word. It makes nice labels. If I can be of any help to you doing the merge please feel free to contact me. I am not very good with computers, kind of ok Ann put your right hand on the mouse, now focus your eyes on the screen person. If I can do the merge anyone can.
