Default Word 2007 mail merge using Excel 2007 data

I didn't mean this specific location; I meant on the Microsoft website under
Help and How To. I even printed the instructions out and brought them to work
which is why I was confused about the result I was getting. They literally
say to click the Finish & Merge button and Print the labels as the "final
step". And then it made no mention of using the Update Fields option to
complete the formatting.

When I need to print one label at a time it will be a different label each
time. So doing another merge or changing the settings is more work than just
deleting the rest of the page and printing what I need when needed. That or
just printing the labels beforehand as a full sheet and only pulling the ones
that are needed. Thanks again for the help. I'm surprised that the help I got
here was more useful than the instructions that are on the Microsoft website
for this process to begin with!

This web site? This is a peer group help forum. The link I posted earlier
explains the complete process with pictures.

For a single label, merge just the one record in question or merge a range
of records to a new document and delete the labels contents you don't
require.
