Default Multiple Numbers on ONE Label

I have several thousand labels I need to print. I would like to put up to 4
part numbers on each label (Avery 5164). These labels will placed on boxes
that hold product. Some labels may only get 2 or 3 part numbers per label
depending on size of the part. My part numbers are classified as S,M,L. Can
this be done? Example...

ABC123 - small
ABC234 - large (max 2 numbers per label)
ABC345 - small
ABC456 - med (max 3 numbers per label)
BCD123 - small
BCD234

See:
Print a Quantity of a Label

The article assumes you have a Quantity field that tells you how many labels
you need for each record.

I have used your method in the past with great success. This time something
a little different. Instead of printing 100 labels, I want to print 25
labels with 4 Different numbers on each label. I am going to put one label
on a box and then put those 4 parts in that box. Can this be done?

The data has to come from somewhere. If you want to specify which parts go
into which boxes, you probably need a related table that holds that
information. You can then draw the data from the tables (via a query), and
print it.

If it's not just a specific range (which could be generated by the Cartesian
product), it has to be specified.

Default Multiple Numbers on ONE Label

I have been unclear in what I want to do. I have a table that stores my Part
Numbers in ONE field [Part]. How do I put one field on a label and get 4
numbers to print on the SAME label? Do I need a subreport which will list
all the numbers and if so, how do I limit the 4 max numbers per label?
