Printer is an HP 6310.

OS is Windows 7.

Open Office 4.0.0

Label  sheets are Avery # 5160.

I'd like to print multiple different labels on different column / row
combinations on the Avery sheet.

(Note:  I do not want to print 30 iterations of the same label on a  sheet.)

As it is, I can readily click through to T*ext Document > File > New >
Labels*
and once there get the dialog box, click on various column and row
selections, click single label and click new document.  The screen shows a
single "box" corresponding to the label position on the sheet.  It takes
any entry I type, and allows all sorts of formatting re type faces, colors,
print sizes, centering, etc.

What it won't do is allow me to type a second label with a different text.

I am forced to print the initial label and then open a new label form,
repeat all the steps, enter the second text, and print that, and repeat the
process for any additional labels.

That is amazingly inefficient.

I am sure I am  missing something simple.

How do I enter two different labels in two different label fields, (or
three, or four, or five or six, for that matter) without having to
reinitialize the "LABEL" function?

Its a frequent occurrence that I need to make 4 or 5 labels with different
texts at one time.

I was readily able to enter multiple labels on a single label sheet with
both Word and WordPerfect.

This shouldn't be Rocket Surgery or Brain Science.  What am I missing?

Thank you.
