easiest for most people. For you, it probably is; but I had some struggles
with it myself, and then found other approaches that to me seemed to make more

Of course it's best to choose one clear explanation.
The advantage of the way your document explains it now, is that it
includes the print-command and the message box that followes.
I've no strong preference for either one.
I'm not sure I totally follow the statement "What most people mis (and
reading her post, I gues its the same with
Patty) is the step that once the label-document is ready, they need to
select data/rows and give a command to have it placed in the labels." Can
you (or Patty?) elaborate on this?

Creating a document for labels is the first step. Getting your data in
it, another. I think that many think they are a sort of ready after step

But other people, probably more experienced users, only need a simple set of
instructions and can find the extra words and screen shots distracting. So

that much extra space after all ;-)
