Default Print multiple mailing labels in "middle" of a sheet using Mailmer

How do I "tell" Mailmerge to start printing a group of mailing labels in the
"middle" of a sheet of labels?

Only by inserting an appropriate number of blank records at the start of the
data file.

Thank You,

I was afraid of that. But, I hoped that there was some way to do it,
similar to the way that you can specify (click on) a specific label under
"Full Page of Same Label" for the "Labels" options and manually enter the
names and addresses.

Under that option, I was hoping to be able to identify the desired starting
label and specify that a group of labels should be printed starting there.

The group of labels that I intended to use would be from a Query in MS
Access 97.

Could I possibly do the same by somehow specifying a "starting" label for
the Query while in Access 97?

I don't know anything about Access, except that I understand that it can
merge to labels directly and may therefore provide alternative tools to
achieve this.

Once again, Thank You,

I have left a similar message in the Access area; but I not received a reply
yet.

There is no way to do it in Access either, other than by what Graham
originally suggested - add the required number of blank records to the start
of the data source.
