Customized Label Template Transfer

[2GWLAN]

I (Thanks to Karl Dewey) created a database and query to print multiple wire
labels. I have created the customized Label for the specialized Panduit
Brand Label. I could be ignorant, but it seems that the customized label is
stored locally in Access. To save my fellow PMs from having to re-create the
cusomized label templates in the label wizard, I would like to do one of
these tasks.

Choice 1- Make the customized label design exportable separately to Access
on other computers.

Choice 2- Make the customized label designs integrated in the particular
database.

Any ideas?

The simplest thing would be to copy all of those customized labels
onto a special form that you name for just that purpose. I would keep
a pristine copy safely set aside outside the reach of others so that a
casual mistake doesn't destroy the form or some of the labels. Your
fellow developers can then bring up that form and copy chosen labels
from that form onto their new form.

Much more sophisticated would be to create a Wizard or Builder to do
essentially the same thing but it would be significantly more
difficult and time consuming. For labels it probably wouldn't be
worth the effort.
