I am using Ooo 3.2.1 on Mac 10.6.

I have a spreadsheet with a data-range defined. I have registered the data-range as a database. I want to print the information in the table to labels.

I go to: File -> New -> Labels
I select the database that I registered
I select the data-range that I defined
I select the database fields that I want in the document.
I select the Brand and Type of label sheet I want.

When I click New Document I get a doc that has only the field names repeated in all the labels on the sheet. I have attached a screen capture.

As you will have seen (or perhaps not, as you are using Gmail), this didn't make it through the mailing list processor - so no-one will have seen what you sent.

What do I need to do to get the CONTENTS of the fields displayed instead of the field names?

I think you need to select the records that you wish to include:
o  Go to View | Data Sources (or press F4) to display the records.
o  Select the records you wish to use.
o  Click the "Data to Fields" button in the Table Data toolbar.

If you still don't see data, you may need to go to View | Field Names (or Ctrl+F9) to toggle off the display of those field names.

I trust this helps.
