Default mailing labels in alphbetical order

I am working in Microsoft Word 2003 and creating a very large list of labels.
I am using Avory 5160 labels. The list that I am working from is not
alphabetized. Is there a way to put the labels in alphabetical order when I
am finished?

You should be using mailmerge. Then it would be possible to sort the data
source. If you have already started by typing the labels, See "Convert
Labels into Mail Merge Data File" on fellow MVP Graham Mayor's website at:

Amen! I changed from labels that we're already filled out to a mail merge
for my 200+ mailing list. The ONLY way to do it!
