Fran,
The best way might be to select those streets you want labelled (either by selecting
or by querying on some characteristic) and then adding the resultant query to the
mapper and then labelling it rather than the original table.
This is actually a pretty powerful way of selectively labelling, although some sort of
intelligence in the labelling function (such as an IF statement would be handy!!!)

Subject: MI Label problem
(I am resending this because it was bounced back from Administrator
[EMAIL PROTECTED] so will apologize in advance if it duplicates)
OK, I have a really infuriating one this morning! I have turned on the
labels in my street centerline file and have selected duplicate text ok, but
no overlapping text and no labelling partial segments. BUT it is labelling
partials! Well, no problem, I will just select and delete the ones in the
map window that I do not want. Right? Wrong! When I move the window
slightly to center and it redraws, there they all are AGAIN! OK, so I will
outsmart it - I will select and delete the labels I do not want, go straight
to the layout window and print - there they are again. I have also
deselected the duplicate text and select label partial segments and it
doesn't give me all of the streets. Does anyone on the list have any
suggestions short of turning of the labels and manually selecting each
individual street?
