Default mailing labels

I want to print mailing labels merging from a data-base, but I don't want to
send to each record, only selected records. How do I do that? Thanks. Janice

If using Word 2000 then you'll need to either create a query in the
database you are using to extract the records you are interested in or
in Word us the "Query Options" command in the Mail Merge Helper and
filter your records on a specific field.

If you do not have a specific field to base your criteria then you
could add a field and type something in it, such as an "x", for those
records you wish to use in the merge.
