Claudine Thanks for your offer to help!
1. Please DO send me the steps in Publisher 2. Please say more about "with a macro you could automatically print the labels from within R:Base". Remember what we want to do is print a NEWSLETTER from Publisher that at the same time prints out addresses. Can you specify the steps within R:Base and within Publisher to do what you're describing. It would be awesome!
