Subject: [My Solution] Re: Mailing Labels from MySQL database
Thanks for all the ideas. Here is a list of the basic paths
suggested along with the comments given for each method. Nobody
claimed any of these was really good and hoped someone would suggest
a better approach.
1. Use MS Word's mail merge and MS Query with MyODBC as the data source.
- On
3 things I can think of. None of them really good.
1: VERY BAD
Use PHP to generate VBScript to control MS Word. I've actually done this
with Excel and while it works, it's not the best solution. (Not by a long
shot)
2: BETTER
Use PHP to build a PDF on the server in the proper Avery label format
