Default How do I make file folder labels

In that case, a mail merge (as Graham suggests) is more appropriate.

Hi Suzanne,

I tried that, but it appears I still need to retype all my file names,

which
numbers close to 100. Is there another way?

Thanks
Jan

In the Tools | Envelopes and Labels dialog, click Options..., and select

the
correct Avery stock number for your filing labels. Click OK to return to

the
Labels dialog and click New Document to get a sheet of labels, which you

can
fill in as needed. They are set up as a table, so be sure you have table
gridlines displayed (Table | Show Gridlines) so you can see the label
boundaries.

I cannot figure out how to merge a bunch of individual names for file

folders
to the Avery site.

Initially, I was able to print out some labels, but it was arduous,

and
then
not all the labels printed correctly.

I have the list of names in Word and I'd like not to have to copy and

paste
or retype them.

Can someone help?

Thank you
