Default is it possible to alphabetize a set of labels for employees

I have been trying to alphabetize a set of labes for employees. We have a
large turnover and everytime new individual comes in I have to move everyone
up or down in order to keep the labels in order

In situations such as this you really need to have a "back end" for the
labels that you can alphabetize. This is known as a data source. You can
create this in Word, Excel, or Access and use it to generate new labels very
easily through a mail merge. See

Also, if you are working with address labels in Word tables, take a look at
this MVP site:
