[Bookstoprisoners] alternative gift mailing

[Suzanne Linder]

Ok.  I figured out how to do the label merge (you have to start in Microsoft
Office or Open Office rather than the database program).  It works most
easily in Microsoft Office but I can't save the labels as a document in
Office, I just have to print them.  Has someone already purchased the
labels?  If they have, and we can figure out a way to hand off the labels, I
can print them out at home.

Let me know.  You can email or call me at 721-7516
