How can I print labels on a partial sheet?
After setting up a set of labels in Word for printing, I can't find a way to
print the first label anywhere but in the upper left position. That means if I have a partially used sheet of labels, I can't use it -- I have to start with a full sheet no matter what. Is there a way to get around this so I can use my left-over label sheets? |

How can I print labels on a partial sheet?
Dave U,
Add "blank" records to your data source above your filled out records. When you select the records for the merge, include the same number of "blank" records to your merge, as missing/used labels from the sheet you using. If you are going to Sort your data, make sure you don't include the "blank" records in the sort. They should be always be on top or the records list. So if your label sheets have 30 labels (3X10), and you already used 12 labels, then mark 12 "blank" records plus the records that you want to merge to the label sheet. Remember the printing for the merge usually goes: Left to Right then Down So you will need to make sure that the labels follow that pattern, if not you may need to remove the errant label(s), and add more "blank" records to the merge list. -- Add MS to your News Reader: news://msnews.microsoft.com Rich/rerat (RRR News) message rule Previous Text Snipped to Save Bandwidth When Appropriate "Dave U" wrote in message ...
