Thanks for the promo, Linda, but the way I explain to do it in the
article *is* to just copy and paste it in. Create one the way you want
and add the address merge fields, if necessary, then copy to all cells,
merge and print. But you can copy the finished one, select the whole
table and paste a copy into all cells in one quick shot.
Although you *can* merge in images with an rigged up INCLUDEPICTURE
field or through VBA with a database, but when it's the same image or
two, it's just not worth the effort when it's so quick to create one
cell (image & fields or text), copy one cell, select table (or columns)
and hit paste to fill up one master sheet, then run the merge to create
as many individual labels as you need or reprint several pages, if the
text is all the same (like a return address label).
And as long as I start feeling better today (blah!), I hope to have
TechTrax out in a day/two.

Subject: [mso] Word Labels with Graphics
As you all know, Christmas is just around the corner
and I normally create labels using Mail Merge in
Word 97. However, I would like to print a graphic
(ie, a little Christmas picture) on the left side of the
label (the same graphic for each one.) I have been
doing this for several years, but I still don't know how
to do it automatically in Word. I end up by manually
copying the graphic into each label. It isn't that great
a task, but it seems that there should be an easy way
to add the graphic to each label.
I used to be able to do it (at least semiautomatically)
in the text version of Wordperfect and before that in Applewriter, and
it was easier than in Word.
I don't remember the procedure I am using now, but
will be desperate for it in a week or two (or three :^) )
Thanks
Don Elias
