I have a word doc, It lists all my CD titles. I would like to create a lable
for each CD sleeve using a Avery lable. Can I inport the text onto the lables
using mail merge? Or how can it be done. I need to create 800 lables and to
fit the contents on the lables I would need text wrap. Help

Yes, this can be done. However, make sure that your labels will work on a CD
and not fall off and clog it.

The label I want to print on is not a CD label, It is an Avery parcel label
to go on the sleeve that I keep my backup CD's in. The list Iwant to print
from is just a list of contents created in word.

The type of label is immaterial. It is the method that matters. The link
demonstrates how to create a label merge.
As for the data file, my other page
http://www.gmayor.com/convert_labels_into_mail_merge.htm explains how to
format your data. Jump in where the illustrations resemble what you have.
