Its not a mail merge. The labels are made up already and I want to put them
in alphabetical order.I have a member whose name starts the B in with the
names that start with C and so on. There is no data base on this
one(Excel,Access)
All i have is a list with names address etc that when i put the mailing
labels into the printer they print them,I peel them and send 'em...bill
