hi
i was given a word document that has a table which looks like lables. however i am trying to format this table or page to print for particular lables. if i go to mail merge and choose this word file as the source for my recepients then it doesn't get recognized properly. i was wondering if anybody knows of a reversing of this to put my word document back to database format. i have monarch and i am sure that can do it, but i was wondering if there is a trick in office how to do this. thanks, sam |

Thanks doug for your answer. was exactly what i was looking for. it didn't
really work for me for some reason, but i am going to try to study it and figure it out. i think it was the way i was selecting the table or the contents that didn't give the right results. thanks a lot, sam "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote: See "Convert Labels into Mail Merge Data File" on fellow MVP Graham Mayor's website at: http://www.gmayor.com/convert_labels...mail_merge.htm -- Hope this helps.
