You don't say much about what you are starting with, but Graham Mayor's
article at

may be relevant.

1) If the labels have been printed out, they can be scanned into Word using OCR. If you then place them one above the other with a space in between each address block, you can use the formula described in the MS support article using Method 1.

2) If the labels have been saved in Word, you can use the 'convert table to text' and make a new list of addresses (in one column) put the word ADDRESS above the first address then a space before your first address block. This is your header. Make sure there is only one space between each address block. Now you are ready to make a table. First do a search and replace for Enter/ Paragraph marks and replace them all with manual line breaks. Then do a search and replace for 2 manual line breaks ^l^l and replace these with one paragraph mark ^p. This will give you a Paragragh/Enter mark as a delimiter between each address record. Using 'Convert Text to Table' you will now have your addresses in a table. Now name and save this file, and you are ready to make new labels using mail merge from this table.

Hope this helps!
