Repeat Label Depending on Field

[Steve Mykowski]

Is it possible when Mail Merging Labels to repeat a label depending on the
value from the data source? If I have a field COPIES in my Excel
spreadsheet, I would like that many labels for that record when merging. An
alternative is I could repeat the record in the spreadsheet, but it would be
easier to just put the count in.

No, there's nothing in Word that will support this. You need to repeat the rows
in the worksheet.
