| 74238 | 2002-08-27 23:17:00 | I have a list of members in an Excell worksheet. Column a - name - b -address - c - district etc. Also have Avery label maker. Part of Word 97. Any method of copying the names etc into the labeling program? Bye |

| 74239 | 2002-08-27 23:37:00 | Yes. You can use an Excel sheet as the input data for maimerge and labels. Where you have to specify the data in Word 97, there is a drop down box for .xls It works, I have used it. Dont have 97 loaded now, but try it anyway. |

If you need more clarification just ask, as I don't want to explain everything if you already know it. |
