Guest Andy Chivers Posted December 14, 2007 Posted December 14, 2007 It's that time of year when I look to do all my Christmas card addresses on labels. The last few years it has worked very well. Since then I've obviously downloaded an upgrade - which doesn't seem to work as well. I follow the instructions to the letter. Having selected my addresses, sortted the layout and then clicked on merge, just one address appears on one label - nothing anywhere else. The selected data is there somewhere - if I click the arrow on the merge toolbar, a different contact appears. I just can't get all of the addresses to appear at the same time on the template. Any ideas ? Thanks -- Andy
Guest Joan Archer Posted December 14, 2007 Posted December 14, 2007 Re: Mail Merge - Blank Labels What application are you using to create the labels. ? You do realize that you have posted to a WinME group, is that the operating system you are using ?

Guest Joan Archer Posted December 15, 2007 Posted December 15, 2007 Re: Mail Merge - Blank Labels Sorry I can't help further and as you're using the horrible web interface I don't know if this will work. Try looking for microsoft.public.word.mailmerge.fields and see if that can give you any help.
