How to convert  label sheets that were created for MSW. I have a number of 
small sheets ... 3 or four labels to a sheet that I can use in MSW but am 
struggling with how to use them in WP
Any help would be appreciated

Thank guys ... Not being unappreciative, but been there and done that. Was 
hoping there was an easier way to convert. Not everything in life is easy is 
it?  ... not even in WP. Appreciate your response and now I know.

Jerry,

Can you find out in MSWord (or from the label pack) the details of such 
a label -- size of sheet; number of labels per row; per column; margin 
above top-left label; margin to left of top left label; space between 
labels top and left; label margins?

If so, then in WPWin, just do Format, Label, Create and create a new 
label definition to the same specifications.

Try this:

"If you have previously created "address labels" and you want to
sort 
them, extract their text, or merge them, try one or more of these 
procedures." - http://wptoolbox.com/tips/ConvertM.html

See esp. "CREATE A TABLE FROM EXISTING LABELS" on that page.

Once the data is in a table you can merge it to new WP labels.

After Format|Labels you may find that an existing Labels 
definition meets your needs. You still need to have done your 
measuring in advance.
