Hi Gang,
I wonder is there a program around where you
can print 1 or 2 labels at a time from a sheet of
labels.

Thanks a lot for any pointers.

All the best, Rolf

Not a program, but this is a piece of code you can use, if you are using an Access database;

"How to skip used mailing labels and print duplicates in Access 2002"

/quote

"SUMMARY
This article describes how to print multiple copies of the same mailing label, and how to use a partially
used page where only some of the labels are available."

How about this. Get a program, like virtually any word processor that knows
about sheets of labels, and put text data only into the labels you want to
print.

This could easily be automated, for those word processors that convert
database-style input to positions on a grid.

Open Office (Writer) can print "single" labels.

File > New > Labels, "Options" Tab. Pick column and row.

(Of course you have to set your label type, e.g. "Avery Letter Size,"
"8160 Ink Jet Address" and input your text, both under the "Labels"
tab. If you need custom sizes other than the availabe templates, you
can do that under the "Format" tab.)

[OT]
M$ Office and other word processors can also do this if you already
have them installed on your system and don't have Open Office.
