Default Merge labels numbering instead of date

I am not sure what you mean by "update all other labels with my database".
Exactly what did you do? What is the datasource?

I'm trying to mail merge some info with today's date on some mailing
labels
to be used as a sales tag. The first item on the label is today's date
(6-1-06). When I told it to update all other labels with my database, it
used the date as a numbering sequence. It put "6-1-07", "6-1-08",
"6-1-09",
etc. on the subsequent labels. I want them all to have the date 6-1-06 on
them. How do I fix this?
