MAIL MERGE ONLY PRINTING 4 RECIPIENTS ON ONE PAGE
I am trying to create labels for a couple hundred recipients, but only four
recipients will print on a sheet. Also, they are printing in the middle of the sheet. How can I make it fill up an entire sheet when it prints? THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! |

MAIL MERGE ONLY PRINTING 4 RECIPIENTS ON ONE PAGE
If you are using a tablet PC, here is a macro to overcome the problem with
propagation of mail merge field fields with a label type mail merge when using a Tablet PC and some other Computers that have Tablet PC Functionality available: Sub MailMergePropagateLabel() Dim atable As Table Dim i As Long, j As Long Dim source As Cell, target As Cell Dim myrange As Range Set atable = ActiveDocument.Tables(1) Set source = atable.Cell(1, 1) Set myrange = source.Range myrange.Collapse wdCollapseStart ActiveDocument.Fields.Add Range:=myrange, Text:="NEXT", _ PreserveFormatting:=False source.Range.Copy For j = 2 To atable.Columns.Count Set target = atable.Cell(1, j) If target.Range.Fields.Count 0 Then target.Range.Paste End If Next j For i = 2 To atable.Rows.Count For j = 1 To atable.Columns.Count Set target = atable.Cell(i, j) If target.Range.Fields.Count 0 Then target.Range.Paste End If Next j Next i atable.Cell(1, 1).Range.Fields(1).Delete End Sub It is suggested that you put this code into a template that you save in the Word Startup folder so that it becomes an add-in and will be available whenever you need it. As the macro has the same name as the Word Command that is supposed to do the job, this macro will run when the Update Labels button is used when setting up the mail merge label main document. Otherwise, see what you are doing differs from the information in the appropriate one of the following articles on fellow MVP Graham Mayor's website: http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm or http://www.gmayor.com/merge_labels_with_word_2007.htm -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
