Default Skipping Labels

Yeah, I suppose we could hijack the merge and have it create a catalog or
directory type document, the insert one more than the required number of
blank rows at the top of the table and insert field names into the first row
and then use that as the data source for the mailmerge.

Maybe I should try and get Avery to pay me for not doing it.g

I am using merge to create multiple mailing labels every day. There
are 30 labels per sheet. If I do not have exactly thirty, how do I
tell the mail merge program to start at a label different from the
first top left position
so as not to waste labels every day?
Thanks,
Jerry
