All I Wanna Do Is Make Some Labels!!

[Corri]

Man, this used to be so easy (with MS Works). You were in your database, you
went to Envelopes and Labels, you either made return addy labels or you printed
out your whole mailing list (or just marked records - now THAT was helpful -
and you could EDIT things, too!!) Now my choices seem to be either "full sheet
all the same" or "single label". Who on EARTH wants to print one single label?
Anyway, I must now face the dreaded MailMerge, I guess. This is so
COMPLICATED. Could anyone help me here??

I simply have a database with names and addresses.
I want to print sheets of labels with one name/address per label.

Thanks in advance

to email, simplify...

Hi

I can understand your frustration. Fortunately, though, mail merge isn’t too difficult once you’ve done it a few times. If you access the mail merge wizard from the Tools >> Letters and Mailings menu, when you start setting up your document, select labels; you’ll be given the opportunity to select the type of label you’re using – just as you would with the label and envelope wizard. Then, it is just a matter of associating your data source and inserting the fields. Hope this helps – good luck
