I am trying to print labels from a database table to a template for
mailing labels I have followed the instructions from OOo help
1.Choose File - New - Labels to open the Labels dialog.
2.Select the format of the label sheets you want to print on. Remember
to mark Synchronize contents on the Options tab.
3.Click New Document.
4.When you see the label document, open the data source view by choosing
View - Data Sources.
5.In the data source view, select your address data source table.
6.Drag the data fields needed for the Address individually into the top
left label. For example, click on the column header NAME and, keeping
the mouse button depressed, drag it into the label. This inserts a
field. Put the fields in order to complete the address in the first
label at top left.
7.Place the cursor at the last text position (after the last field) in
the first label.
8.Choose Insert - Fields - Other, and go to the Database tab.
9.Select the type Next record, click on Insert and then on Close.
10.You can now synchronize the labels. Click on the Synchronize Labels
button in the small window.
11.In the data source view, select the records for which you would like
address stickers, by clicking on the row headers to the left. Use the
Shift or Ctrl key in the usual way to select several records at the same
time.
12.On the Table Data bar, click the Data to Fields icon.
13.You can then save and/or print the label document.
When you choose to print the document, you will be asked if you want to
print a form letter. Answer Yes to open the Mail Merge dialog.
When I get to step 10 I get only one page of records with all the same
information.
I have tried step 11 and 12 but get the same result I have 4,018 more
records selected.
Is there better information on how to print labels elsewhere.
Thanks in advance for any help
