Mail Merge Labels "Update Labels" greyed out
Hi ?B?RGlhbm5lIEdyaWZmaW4=?=,
In Word 2007, using an existing merge document and Access data, I am unable to use the "update labels" command to make changes in the label format. How can I fix this? Have you checked that the document "type" is still set to "Labels" (look in the "Start Mail Merge" button in the "Mailings" tab)? And the database is attached?

Mail Merge Labels "Update Labels" greyed out Try starting againfrom scratch and click on the Mail Merge Wizard to set up your labels. Afterdozens of frustrating attempts to solve it , this suddenly worked.
