mail merge labels multiple on one page
This question is specific to Word 2007.
I know how to do mail merges and have done it NUMEROUS times. However, in Word 2007, it's proving to be more difficult because Microsoft's trying to make it easier. (sigh). I am doing Christmas cards. And I just want to print all my TO addresses on label. I got it all set up...only problem is...Word seems to want to force me to only print one label per page. How do I force Word 2007 to fill up one sheet before going to the next? I'm using Avery 5162..and there's 14 labels per sheet. I can't execute the mail merge like I'm used to. My only options are to print (at which point it sends all the labels to the printer...but only printing one per page) or to edit individual labels. Which is still one label per page. |

hahaha. TELL me about it! Unfortunately, I was out of town on business and
just got back last night...heheh Either way, Thank you VERY much for your help. Turns out the problem was the "Update Labels" button. Not sure where I went wrong....as it was greyed out most of the time. But at some point, I could hit that button, and viola...it propogated it out. by the way...AWESOME tutorial! Either way...much appreciated!

That button is very easy to miss; even easier is the one that actually
completes the merge (so that you get more than one sheet of labels). -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "Skeety" wrote in message ... hahaha.
