Regarding adding the "Main Document Setup" command to the QAT, how
does this work any different than using the Start Mail Merge command
on the Mailings tab? The extra space is still added since it appears
to be calling the same routine as the Start Mail Merge command.

It doesn't work differently - but the space is not added if you
merely change the document type (of an already loaded template) to
labels and then continue the merge process.


If I start with my own labels and use the Main Document Setup command
to change the label type the space is still added. Are you not seeing
the same thing?


Not if you have already attached the data source.

Start with a label format on screen (either from a template or from the
new document feature of the Label tool under Mailings). Attach the data
source (Select Recipients). Whether you now add the fields or change the
document type to 'labels' the space is not added. It is only added if you
choose the document type before you apply the data source.


I've tried various methods attempting to figure out what you are seeing but
in each scenario, even if I keep the same label type, when I change the type
to labels the space is still added.
