Never used the report designer before and figured I would give it a whack.

I need to print some mailing labels.  All the same address (think return 
address 
labels), and for now just one sheet of 12.

I have a box of:
Avery 5179
1.5" x 4"

I 'could' make a db and store my name/address in it, but that seem silly given 
I 
can do something like:

 >>> [{ 'fname': 'Carl', 'lname': 'Karsten', 'addr':'8345 Newland Av.'}]*3

[{'lname': 'Karsten', 'addr': '8345 Newland Av.', 'fname': 'Carl'}, {'lname': 
'Karsten', 'addr': '8345 Newland Av.', 'fname': 'Carl'}, {'lname': 'Karsten', 
'addr': '8345 Newland Av.', 'fname': 'Carl'}]

Or some other simple way to make multiple copies.

I would also like to stick a usps bar code on there.  Anyone have a clue how I 
can make that happen?

This seemed like such a simple project when I started.

Also, here is the output I collected while running the ReportDesigner.  It 
would 
be nice if the default was to only spew things I needed to pay attention to.
"dApp didn't touch it" seems pretty pointless.
