SUMMARY
This article contains the Works 4.0 Print Merge Questions and Answers.



MORE INFORMATION
Q. Do I need to have a database created to make envelopes, mailing labels, or form letters?

A. If you only want to print a single envelope, multiple copies of     the same envelope, or multiple copies of the same label (such as      return address labels), you do not need to have a database file. If you want to create envelopes or mailing labels of different addresses, or a form letter, then you do need to have a database.

Q. I have been trying to create multiple copies of one label, but when I click Preview on the Printing tab, I only see one copy. Why?

A. Make sure you have entered the proper number of labels for the sheet of labels you are using. For example, if your labels come on     pages with three columns of ten labels, type 30 in the Number Of      Labels box.

Q. I have an address that I made into Easy Text. Can I use the F3 key to insert that Easy Text into an envelope's return address, main address, or a mailing label?

A. No, you cannot. You must retype the address in this case.

Q. I only want to create labels for part of my database. How do I do     that?

A. Whether you are making envelopes, labels, or form letters, you can specify which records from your database are included by using the Recipients tab of the Envelope, Label, or Form Letter dialog box. If you mark specific records in your database, you can select the option to print currently marked records. Or you can use or modify an existing filter, or create a new filter to determine which record's information will print on your envelope, label, or form letter. For more information on filters or marking records, see your Works online Help.
