Import Avery Label Size???

[Chris K]

I need to create some Avery labels but the Access built-in size is wrong

Is it possible to import label dimensions (maybe using MS Word Labels) into
Access to use as a report

Are you saying the predefined label for the number you're putting in
is wrong, or that there are no predefined labels with the same
layout?

Not that I know of, but you should be able to start from a close
predefined label layout and adjust it. It's not all *that*
complicated, just a little fussy.

Labels are very fussy - doesn't seem to take much to cause printing in the
wrong area

Yes, I know -- I've created them. I've also adjusted a predefined
layout to work with a different layout. It's an interative process,
and uses a lot of paper (you don't have to use labels to test), but
it's not complicated. You just adjust the margins/sizes until it
prints correctly -- it's not rocket surgery.
