Default last numbers of the record

If you know the number of records, you have type it (and any other text that
you require onto the first label of the sheet, and then use the "Update
labels" facility to propagate the set up of that label to the other labels
on the sheet.

is there anyway to include the last # of a record on a label?


I'm trying to get the label to show as 1/10, 2/10,, etc. from a table.


my mistake. I'm doing this off of a word processor. Its microsoft word,
not excel. I don't remember what version of word it was. the data source
is mostly dates & numbers.

there is a mail merge switch that sort of lets you append a text to the
mailmerge field, but the thing is I'd have to cut & past for each table
cell if I remember to do this. If I don't, the labels are wasted.
