Why are my labels coming out blank?
I feel silly about this, but I have followed all of the steps in the tool
wizard to make labels and I can not figure out why they continue to come out blank. |

Why are my labels coming out blank?
Hi Sigwah,
What version of Word are you using? (I use Word 2003, so I might not be able to help you much, but will certainly try). Are you making a sheet of labels that are all the same or is each label different? What does your Print Layout View show you onscreen? Do you see the information there but it won't print, or do you still not see any content in the labels? Karen |

This is what you can do on XP or 2003, only 97 is different. Again I would need to know if you can see the text on screen and it just isn't printing or whether it is not on screen. Depending which way you are doing it there are a couple of things I would try. If you are using the Mail Merge wizard (Tools Letters and Mailings Mail Merge) but choosing labels, you should be able to see your labels on screen. Once you have selected your data source, insert the fields using More Items... this lets you put your fields in. Then click Update All Labels this should populate all the labels on screen. then complete the merge If you are using Tools Evelopes and Labels Once you have chosesn the size of your label, click New Document, this will put an outline of your labels on the page. If you can't see them click on Table on the menu bar and show gridlines. Then you can type the info into the labels. Then print as normal. Hope this helps -- louiset |

Any chance your text has a dotted underline?
