Typing a page of address labels - each one different - possible? AnxiousAnnie 11/16/2008 4:24:00 PM I understand that it's possible to type a page of address labels. What I don't know is whether I can type a page of labels with each address different - is that possible? If so - how does one do it?

This will give you a sheet of labels. They are set up as a table, so make sure you have table gridlines displayed (Table | Show Gridlines) so you can see the label boundaries. -- Suzanne S.

Re: Typing a page of address labels - each one different - possible? CyberTaz <onlygeneraltaz1[ at ]com.cast.net> 11/16/2008 10:58:21 PM Just a thought - If you expect to add to the records or need to be able to sort them & select based on criteria for different purposes in the future why not type the records as a Data document in a regular Word table or Excel? You can then use Word's Mail Merge to generate labels whenever necessary. Before you start typing you may want to take a look in Word Help pertaining to the Mail Merge features & creating a Data Source. This is specific to Word 2007 but the concept is the same for earlier versions: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word/HA100819761033.aspx HTH |:>) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac On 11/16/08 11:24 AM, in article 63C013B7-1EC9-4FFE-87E5-B457ACDE62B9[ at ]microsoft.com, "AnxiousAnnie" <AnxiousAnnie[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote: [Quoted Text] > I understand that it's possible to type a page of address labels.
