I tried to find the answer to your question through the Microsoft Word Web site but cannot find and do not know if the program will word on Word 2002.

Perhaps your own research will help you to find the answer.

I'll have to get back to it. I'm thinking about ordering your sales letter package. I have Word 2002 working on XP will they work? Thanks, Hi Shirley,

To promote your holiday gift baskets, did you send follow-up mailers or send any type of communication to encourage orders? If not, I wonder if that would have made a difference.

It was the member list for the Tri-State Chamber that I am a member of - the president sent me the list with contact information. Can't say that I got a great response, but I did get a couple of orders, after the mailing. But, I didn't get any holiday orders, which I think is weird because there isn't another designer as a member. So, not sure about what's going on. I do know that I probably wouldn't have sent a mailing if I purchased the list because that is expensive with no guarantee on return.
