How do i place text where i want it when making labels?

[Lee]

I'm trying to make labels using the Mail Merge tool in word. I can't seem to
place the text where i want it without messing it up otherwise. I tried
putting the address block in a text block but then it made each page have
only one contact on that entire page. How do i move the text?

Don't use a textbox and don't use the address block. Labels are just tables
with the text horizontally aligned left and vertically centered. That
alignment can be changed by right clicking in the cell and selecting Cell
Alignment from the short cut menu and you can enter the mergefields that you
want in the configuration that YOU want them rather than being constrained
by the layout of the address block.
