PREVIEWING A TABLE IN WORD

N

NJ_TOWER

I HAVE CREATED A WORD TABLE THAT I'M USING WITH MAIL MERGE TO CREATE LABELS. THE TABLE HAS OTHER, NON-LABEL INFO (LIKE E-MAIL ADDRESSES AND PHONE #S), BUT MOSTLY IT'S FOR MAILING LABELS. CREATING AN ACCESS DB WAS WAAAAY TOO MUCH FOR THIS.

HOWEVER, I CANNOT SEE THE WHOLE WIDTH OF THE TABLE ONSCREEN. EVEN AT THE TEENIEST PREVIEW SETTING SOME COLUMNS ARE 1 LETTER WIDE. I THINK THIS IS BECAUSE THE "PREVIEW" TAKES ITS CUE FROM YOUR PRINTER, AND IF YOUR PRINTER CAN ONLY PRINT, SAY, 11 INCHES WIDE, YOUR PREVIEW WILL BE LIMITED TO 11 INCHES.

IF I "FOOL" WORD INTO THINKING THAT I HAVE A PRINTER THAT PRINTS, SAY, 36" WIDE PAPER, (AND I WOULD FOOL IT BY LOADING A DRIVER FOR A PRINTER THAT CAN PRINT 36" WIDE PAPER), WILL I BE ABLE TO SEE THE DOCUMENT ONSCREEN?
