MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / January 2004Finding Label Sizes
Is there any way to get a list of the label sizes/product # (by mfr)? i.e. I'm starting with what I require as far as size is concerned but scrolling through the myriad of "Label Options" to try and find the available sizes is somewhat of a pain. The "ideal" world would have an option of presenting the list sorted by size (mind you, I'm old enough not to believe in the ideal world anymore!). If I'm the only one that thinks this is a pain then it probably means I'm missing something.  SignatureRegards; Rob ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Most labels use the Avery numbering standard - even cloned labels usually provide the label number. Check for equivalence with the labels you are using.

Try this site for label sizes and template downloads http://www.worldlabel.com/Pages/template_1.htm ------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the response but it looks like I didn't express myself clearly. I'm not working with any label in particular, I've only defined that I need a label of a certain size. I find it a pain to scroll through all the labels which Word lists by mfr in product # order, when I'd like to be able to find the label by size (ex. List all labels x" in length and y" in height). For ex. does Word maintain a text file with the label info that I could copy and import into XL? Or could I do it in VBA? This is not the end of the world, just an annoyance for me.
