Hi Sunanda
The simple way is to use the tables, just open a fresh page and set your margins to thin, look along the top and click on the 'page layout' tab, then the margins and select the narrow = 0.5".
Now look along the top for the insert tab and in there you will find the table, click on that and highlight the first two squares, that will place a table on the page with a line in the middle.
Place your logo in the left hand side and then the info you want in the right hand side, you can move the middle line as well as placing your text etc. left, centre, right or justify within each table separately.
If you wish to add a line of text underneath the divided table just click into the right side one and press the tab key, which is the one on the left had side of your keyboard with opposing arrows, this will add a new row under the one you have been working on.
If you run your mouse across the new row to highlight both cells and right click on your mouse, you can Marge the cells to make that one a single cell.
You can adjust the hight of each row to give you the size which will represent just under a third of the page, select the full table when you are happy with it and use the Ctrl and c keys to copy it, now click under the table and press the return key to give you a space on the page, now press Ctrl and v to past the table, repeat the last moves again to get the third table and print it, to see if you are lined up.
If not just use the return key between the tables to give you the correct spacing so they all line up on the page.
Finlay, highlight each table, move your mouse to the left side of a table and you will see a little x appear, click onto it and the table is highlighted, now look along the menu in the top and find the line one, it shows a box with one of the lines darker than the others, in the drop down menu select the no boarders, and the lines will disappear, your table is still there but it will not print, hey presto finished.
I hope you can follow that 🙂
I have just had a look at the templates which you can load when you select new page, if you open the template page and put 'compliment slip' into the search box at the top, it will give you a selection, you can just edit one of them to produce your compliment slip.
I don't normally use word for DTP applications as I have a professional package for designing brochures etc. 🙂
Thanks, Paul. I will give your method a go tomorrow when I have time to follow your instructions, step by step. The person who kindly 'did' it for me said she also used tables, and I'd like to know how to use them. I had a look at the templates but didn't see one that I really liked. It's certainly another option though.
Edit to say I couldn't resist having a go and your method worked perfectly for me, Paul. I can now experiment with different fonts, colours etc. It'll keep me amused for hours! Thanks again.
