Hi Sharon.  I also am using the Dymo label printer.  Wouldn't be without it now.

Just one thing I'd point out.   To enable the labling software to work within 
MS Word, a macro for Word is installed.  Depending on your Word settings, you 
may get dire warnings about possible threats from macros being viruses when you 
open Word after label software installation.  You'd either have to allow the 
macro to run if Word gives you that option, or if it simply refuses to run the 
macro, then changing settings under tools-options.

You may well find that with JAWS the label program itself which offers many 
formating and address list options is not very navigable with JAWS without 
scripts, unless you are a moderately advanced JAWS user that is.  So you could 
find yourself using the labeler within Word alone.  Either way, you could well 
need a little help in setting up, but someone here would doubtless step in.

There is also the option of the AVery labler which has the nice feature of 
pealing the labels off the backing sheet after printing, automatically.

HTH.
Ray
