EnvelopeExtra1 in Word 2007?

[Novice]

I used Word Options > Proofing > AutoCorrect to add EnvelopeExtra1 as I have
done in previous versions of Word. When I chose "omit" in the Envelope window
for return address, nothing was printed on my Envelope. Any suggestions?

Also, I followed directions to add my Address Book on the Quick Access
toolbar and when I try using the Address Book in the Envelope window OR the
normal Word Window, my computer freezes and restarts Word.

Word Options > Proofing > AutoCorrect is the wrong place. You need to
create EnvelopeExtra1 as an AutoText entry by selecting the entry,
pressing Alt+F3, and assigning the name and the AutoText gallery in
the resulting dialog. See

Re address book - is Outlook your default e-mail application?

Yes, Graham, I use Word 2007 as my default e-mail application. Also, my OS is
Vista Home Premium. Word only "crashes" when I click on the Outlook Address
Book while I am in the Word window or in the envelope window. Using the
Address Book in Outlook is no problem.
