Mail merge labels next record
The classic "Next Record" issue in mail merge labels!
When you're using a mail merge to print labels, you might encounter a situation where the software doesn't advance to the next record automatically. This can happen when you're printing a large number of labels and the software gets stuck on the same record.
Here are a few possible solutions to help you move to the next record:
- Check your merge settings: Ensure that your mail merge settings are configured to advance to the next record after printing each label. You can usually find these settings in the "Options" or "Preferences" menu of your mail merge software.
- Use the "Next Record" button: Look for a "Next Record" or "Advance to Next Record" button in your mail merge software. This button is usually located in the toolbar or in the "File" menu. Clicking this button will advance the merge to the next record.
- Use the "Page Break" feature: If you're using a word processor or page layout software to print your labels, you can insert a page break after each label to force the software to advance to the next record. This can be done by inserting a page break character (usually Ctrl+Enter) or by using the "Insert" menu to add a page break.
- Use a label software with automatic record advancement: Some label software, such as Avery Design & Print or Labeljoy, have built-in features that automatically advance to the next record after printing each label. If you're using a different software, you might consider switching to one of these options.
- Manually advance the record: If none of the above solutions work, you can try manually advancing the record by clicking on the "Next Record" button or by using the "Page Down" key to move to the next record.
I hope these suggestions help you resolve the "Next Record" issue and successfully print your mail merge labels!
