Finding Label Sizes

[RWN]

Is there any way to get a list of the label sizes/product # (by mfr)?
i.e. I'm starting with what I require as far as size is concerned but
scrolling through the myriad of "Label Options" to try and find the
available sizes is somewhat of a pain.
The "ideal" world would have an option of presenting the list sorted by
size (mind you, I'm old enough not to believe in the ideal world
anymore!).
If I'm the only one that thinks this is a pain then it probably means
I'm missing something.

Most labels use the Avery numbering standard - even cloned labels usually
provide the label number. Check for equivalence with the labels you are
using.

Thanks for the response but it looks like I didn't express myself
clearly.

I'm not working with any label in particular, I've only defined that I
need a label of a certain size.
I find it a pain to scroll through all the labels which Word lists by
mfr in product # order, when I'd like to be able to find the label by
size (ex. List all labels x" in length and y" in height).

For ex. does Word maintain a text file with the label info that I could
copy and import into XL?
Or could I do it in VBA?

This is not the end of the world, just an annoyance for me.
