That's fine if you wish to print envelopes
from "envelope.doc", but as soon as you open another file
(and wish to print an envelope while in that file), the
envelope print position has to again be set to the
desired point.

Microsoft has obviously set a "default" for envelope
printing. There must be some way to change it. Any other
ideas?
