ALErs -
I seem to be stuck making labels using StarOffice-6.0 - OO may use the
same procedures. Here's what I've done:
1. Entered my address list in spreadsheet form, with column (field) labels
in the first row: "FirstName LastName Address1 ..."
2. Saved the results as both a StarOffice spreadsheet file and CSV text
file.
3. Tried to create a sheet of labels based on that source starting with
the various SO-6 wizards, etc.
I also imported the list into Netscape as an address book and tried to
link that back to SO-6 as my address source, with the same results.
Whatever I do, I get a single page with the proper label layout, _but_
each label has the same text: the names of my fields. It looks as though
I've created a rather uninteresting set of _return_address_ (identical)
labels based on the first line of my spreadsheet.
Any clues for this pilgrim?
TIA.
