Enter the text that you want to appear on the label, then click on the New
Document button and then select the labels and right click with the mouse
and use the Cell Alignment item in the short cut menu that appears to select
the desired alignment.

Hello Terri,

Thanks for the information but it did not help. I have no problem with
tables, only with labels when accessed via the mailings tab and then pick
labels. Right clicking the label gives you two picks.......font and
paragraph. Under paragraph you can center horizontally but not vertically.
The other pick is body text, levels 1 to 9 and I have no idea what that
is.
With the label window on the screen, you cannot access the ribbon. Please
try
what I am doing and let me know if you come up with an answer to this
problem.

Labels are actually table cells. Select the table. Right click in the
table.
Choose Table properties. Choose the Cell tab. Vertical alighment, Center.

I have checked the "Help" in Word 2007 regarding this and it refers to
settings within the "Table" menu. I cannot find the information related
to
table settings either. Has anyone have any answers?
