how do I know where the margins of a label are when doing a merge
Is there some way to turn on the outline of the labels you are doing in a
merge document so you can see the size and outline of the labels themselves to format the information you are putting on your label? I am using Word 2007. |

how do I know where the margins of a label are when doing a merge
Labels are just tables with fixed cell dimensions so when the selection is
in the table, the Table Tools tabs should appear on the Ribbon, select the Layout tab and in the Table section at the left had end of the ribbon, click on the View Gridlines button. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP "lgpars" wrote in message ...

Click the layout tab under Table Tools and in the first group... Table...
click View Gridlines if it is not already selected. If it is already selected, they you can't see the lines because of the low contrast blue color Microsoft elected to use with this version of Word. Try changing your brightness and/or contrast settings and/or the angle from which you are viewing the screen. Good luck!
