hello

Hello,
First, you need to create the database with columns for the different fields, with rows to enter information for each person (Excel, for example, or OpenOffice Calc).
Next, run a mail merge and publish/print; in Word there is help that describes step by step how to proceed.
It will probably be necessary to define the characteristics of the label page.
Do test prints to check the work.
You can create a permanent file that can be reused later.
Finally print from label pages.

Hello; this is exactly what I’m looking for too; that kind of label I could sticking on an A3 Bristol board and placing in an A3 protector with the maximum amount of information and the greatest visibility about the people, to pass down from generation to generation but I’m still looking; perhaps with a blank sticky sheet and a typewriter if we can still find one...
