How do I use Word for Sparco Brand Labels?
Are these labels ancient? MAILLABL.DOT (the correct name) dates back to at
least Word 6.0 (as can be gathered from the 8.3 filename). The template contained a macro that generated a label layout based on information entered in a sort of wizard. According to the Word 2.0 User's Guide: "For any of these activities [creating and printing single or multiple labels], you specify the type of printer you're using and the type of mailing label sheet on which you intend to print the labels. In asking you to specify the type of mailing label sheet, Word assumes you are using Avery mailing labels and prompts you for the product number of the sheet type. If you're using another brand, you may find an equivalent Avery product number printed on the mailing label sheet; this is the number you should use." The same is still true in current versions. In Tools | Letters and Mailings | Envelopes and Labels | Labels | Options, you select the appropriate Avery equivalent from the "Avery standard" list. If the label package doesn't indicate an Avery equivalent, you will have to hunt by trial and error through the label definitions. Sparco is not a brand listed even under Other/Custom, so you'll have to measure your labels and then hunt for some (I'd suggest looking in the Avery Standard list, since it's the most extensive) that are the same size. -- Suzanne S.
