This is really frustrating. Originally, I was getting one page worth's
of labels (30) when I'd high-lighted all 34 records. Then for whatever
reason I was only getting 15, the "odd" pages (assuming each label is
considered a page).
Now, when I followed "way B" above, after invoking the mail merge
wizard, after creating the label document and selecting step 8
(omitting the others), the little wizard (in a Mail Merge box) indicates
that it is creating documents, with Status: x of 65535. It eats memory,
and everything slows down. I press [cancel] and that process stops. If I
then elect to print pages 1-2, I get all of my 34 records as labels, but
there are many (depending on how far the mail merge goes before I press
[cancel] extra pages with blank labels.
All I want OOo to do is create/print 34 labels.
I can't explain why the Mail Merge (with labels) wants to create 65535
labels!
Any ideas?
I hate to be a broken record -- but have you read the Mail Merge chapter
of the Writers guide:
http://oooauthors.org/en/authors/userguide2/writer/published_final/0211WG-UsingMailMerge.pdf
and have you tried the process described in that document?
If you have followed the document's instructions for printing labels and
are still having trouble, please write back and let us know specifically
what happened, so we can improve the documentation.
Thanks very much,
Dick Detwiler (one of many authors of this chapter)
