I just purchased 2007 and cannot find how to insert postal bar code on an 
single envelope which I could do using 2003 version.  Can anyone tell me how 
to do this now?  Thanks.

The POSTNET barcode was removed from the Envelopes dialog because it's
no longer accepted by the USPS for bulk discounts
(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/897290).

You can still insert a BARCODE field by hand. Click Insert > Quick
Parts > Field, select BarCode in the list of field names, and type the
zip code in the appropriate box on the right side of the dialog.
