mail merge labels in Word 2003
When trying to print labels with mail merge in Word 2003, only the first row
of labels per page is populating. The remaining rows on the page are blank and the labels continue on the subsequent pages. After formatting the first label on the first page and clicking the Update All Labels button, only the first row of labels takes the Address Book fields. -- DaveD Programmer MVH |

mail merge labels in Word 2003
If you are using a Tablet PC, there's a tablet-specific problem in this
area - see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/898630/en-us If not, let us know. Peter Jamieson "DaveD" wrote in message ...

mail merge labels in Word 2003
I am using a tablet pc, but I was assisting a user who is not. She is
running it on a server running Windows Server 2003. -- DaveD Programmer MVH "Peter Jamieson" wrote: If you are using a Tablet PC, there's a tablet-specific problem in this area - see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/898630/en-us If not, let us know.

mail merge labels in Word 2003
Hmm, I wonder if Windows Server 2003 actually has the same bit of Windows
code that causes the problem? (normally I'd try and check here but jeapordising my server's a step too far :-) ) I can only suggest a. copying the cell contents manually instead of relying on the propagate labels function (once you've copied to row 2, it should be fairly easy to copy/paste to the other rows, and if the merge needs to be repeated then it should be enough to save the mail merge main document as a .doc, re-open it, and connect a different data source if necessary, and re-map the fields if necessary b. raising a support incident with Microsoft (we're just volunteers here) Peter Jamieson "DaveD" wrote in message ...

Thank you for your help. It actually works now. I had to completely start
from scratch and after cancelling out of an ISAM error it appears to be working correctly. -- DaveD Programmer MVH "Peter Jamieson" wrote: Hmm, I wonder if Windows Server 2003 actually has the same bit of Windows code that causes the problem?
