The explanation is much longer than the action - which is why I posted the
links rather than explain it all over again
Whether it is possible to create a label form in Outlook, I don't know. It
would seem to be a sensible idea - but this forum is about mail merge in
Word. Ask in the Outlook forum

Thanks for that reply. I'm sure it will work.
I can't fathom how you have to do all that just to print a stinking
label from Outlook though?
If I want to print maybe 5 labels it would take me much longer than
just writing them out by hand.
Why not just have a way to print a label form Outlook?
Sorry to rant, thanks for your help Graham.

I am trying to mail merge from Outlook 2007Word 2007. I would
really like to use categories,m but it doesn't seem to do that. I
have to take all contacts then keep Outlook open to see the sorted
list then manually select those I want.
But the bigger problem is that I can select the contacts I want, but
it doesn't pull any actual data. When I try to update labels all I
get is a full page of next record
If I select Create labels from the tool bar all I get is a blank
dialog, there is no data for me to select to format or print. If I
go back to Edit recipient list all the contacts I selected are still
there.
What am I doing wrong?
