How do I print on index or rolodex cards?

I want to make 3x5 index cards or Rolodex cards. I know I will need to type
in names and addresses and phone numbers and stuff, but I don't know which
program in Office 2003 to use or how to make them print on separate cards.
I'm sure someone has already figured out how to do this, but when I look on
the Knowledge Base it doesn't tell me, so I must not know what to ask. (Yes,
I am inexperienced, but I do have Office 2003 & it seems like that would be
something it could do if I knew how to do it.) Can you help?

Rolodex cards are treated as lables in all of the Office Suite
applications....you can set up your addresses in Word, access or
excel...................

OK. I have Word and Excel and Outlook and Powerpoint, but not Access. If I
were going to use Word or Excel (the programs I am most familiar with), how
would I do it? I would think Excel would have places for names and addresses
by using cells. How would I make it print each person on a different card?

Read the help section in Word on printing lables and merging, the merging
will lead you to the questions you need to answer on building your address
list otherwise called a simple database

Oops! I thought this was access to general questions. I'll see if I can
find the other group. I obviously have no clue about what I am doing!
Sorry! Thanks for your help. It's no wonder I couldn't figure out the
instructions.

Try ndxCards ( www.ndxcards.com ) - with the latest release, you can
pretty much print on any card size easily.
