Default HELP - Formatting Labels

You _can't_ do it in the labels wizard, you have to do it on the page. Use
the wizard to create a page of labels.

Labels are just specially formatted tables and you can format text in them
the same way you can text in any other table. For something I'm going to be
using a lot, I set up styles. Take a look at
http://addbalance.com/usersguide/tables.htm,
http://addbalance.com/usersguide/basic_formatting.htm and
http://addbalance.com/usersguide/styles.htm.

If I want a bunch of the same label, I do one the way I want it, bookmark
it, and use REF fields in the others to replicate it. That way I can change
the one and update the other fields.
