As far as I know the spacing in the labels is derived from the spacing of
the Normal paragraph style in the template from which the user originally
created the document - i.e., typically but not necessarily, normal.dotm.
So ways you could consider changing this include:
a. get the users to change the default spacing of the Normal style in their
normal.dotm template
b. create and distribute a new template with a Normal paragraph style that
has the spacing you/they want: users would have to select that template as
the starting point for their label merge
c. get the users to save the label layouts they use most, with the
line/paragraph spacing they want, either as templates to be used in the
usual way, or as .dotx files to be opened and "saved as" as necessary.
Either way, I would not save these files with the data source attached, or
the users will instead spend their time trying to deal with data sources
that no longer exist.

Hi, does anyone know how to make word 2007 sp1 default to SINGLE SPACING
(with no extra spacing of any kind) on mailmerge labels?
Everytime I try a new labels mailmerge, it adds extra space between the
lines. I have 40 users who do not appreciate having to change the style
every
time they create labels. I have actually been asked this question twice
before lunch today.
