How do I get the zip code scan bar on the envelopes?

[JoeL]

I have MS Office 2007 and in the envelope program it does not have the zip
code scan bar on the envelope.
How can this be done?

You can't simply check the barcode box in the Envelope dialog anymore,
but you can still manually insert the { BARCODE } field on your
envelope. Note that Word's postal barcodes do not comply with current
USPS regulations. See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=897290 "The
POSTNET bar code that Word generates no longer qualifies for USPS bulk
mailing discounts" for more information.
