How do I make Labels with a list of addresses from Word?

Question

I don't know what I am doing. I found the tools and the correct label template. I pushed the merge mail. and I don't know what a field is or a record is and can't find the answer. When I try to get the information on my list to fill into the labels what I get instead is this: <>. HELP Someone!! I tried going back to the list of addresses and putting a / at the beginning and end of each name and address but that didn't help either. The word doc. that I have is 2 collumns with names and addresses made with 2 text boxes. I have never done anything like this and I don't want to have to cut and paste each one. But I don't have a clue as to what I am doing. Can anyone help me??

I have the paper. I have done all the rest. I can not understand the instructions when I get to the mail merge part.

No one really answered the question, so I am not choosing a best answer.
