No, Michael. Word does not have a function to perform this action.

Hi,

When I setup the mail merge for printing labels, the labels are filled
from
left to right, and top to bottom.

Is there a way to change the fill order to [top to bottom] and then [left
to
right]?

That is, instead of the labels

A B C D
E F G H
I J K L

I want

A D G J
B E H K
C F I L

I did some research on this subject, and I only saw sugguestions to use
Macro or VB to programatically do this. Does Word not have the function
to
specify this fill direction?

Thanks,
Michael
