MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / March 2006Skipping Labels
I am using merge to create multiple mailing labels every day. There are 30 labels per sheet. If I do not have exactly thirty, how do I tell the mail merge program to start at a label different from the first top left position so as not to waste labels every day? Thanks, Jerry The only way to do this is to insert the appropriat number of blank records at the beginning of the datasource.  SignatureHope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP >I am using merge to create multiple mailing labels every day.

Maybe I should try and get Avery to pay me for not doing it.<g> SignatureHope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
