John,

 

If I go your route, I would still have turn the one row with four pieces
(row 3) into four rows.  

I had thought of that. What code would I use to accomplish that?

IF pieces > 1 THEN

?

 

Jim

Jim,

One way to achieved the results you are looking for is to first build a
temporary table containing one row of data for each label.  The table
should contain a column for every item of data that you want to appear
on the label plus one auto number column.  The auto number column would
be used to identify the label as 1 of 6 etc.  

Then use label designer to produce the labels based on the temporary
table.

Presently our Bill of lading program prints labels in this manner.

Let's say I have three rows of data for a bill of lading as below.

                        Pieces  Wgt/pc  total Wgt

Row one:              1         346        346

Row two:              1        845        845

Row three:            4         400       1600

 

The Program will print 6 labels; one each for the first two rows and
four for the third line.

Each label will show 1 of 6, 2 of 6, etc. and the weight as such

 

1 of 6    wgt 346

2 of 6    wgt 845

3 of 6    wgt 400

4 of 6    wgt 400

5 of 6    wgt 400

6 of 6    wgt 400

 

What function or command would I use to duplicate this process?

 

Jim
