You are hosting a holiday party on Saturday, December 8.  The party will begin at 5:00 p.m.  All guests are to bring an appetizer, side dish, or dessert that will serve at least 15 people.  You will provide the main dish--turkey on the grill.  The grab bag limit is $20 for adults and $10 for children.  Anyone with questions should contact you.
1.  Create a form letter (use a template) announcing the holiday party.  Place the text, Holiday Party!, at the top of the letter in an AutoShape.  Place a drawing canvas behind the Autoshape.  Save all the documents in a folder called Holiday Party.
     --include text color; autoshape fill and line color; 50% transparency on canvas
     --24 point spacing above the date line
     --format greeting line to use colon; format date to a different word style
     --Body of letter is 14 point

2.  Obtain the names and addresses of five of your friends or family members and use them as records in the data source.
     --Delete unnecessary fields; add a new field (this might be helpful in #3)
     --use an If...Then...Else field which includes two alternatives
     --print document with field codes
     --print merge

3.  Address accompanying labels and envelopes for the form letters.
     --Query for four members and print as labels
     --Query for last two members and print as envelopes

4.  Create a new document directory (same data source) which includes all fields.
     --sort one field in ascending order; include top row of column headings
     --include a table border; table format
     --Resize to display all information; print in landscape orientation
