hi
basicly all excel does is send the data. it has some size options but limited. speaking for 2003 back, not sure about 2007. set your sticker printer as default then on the menu bar..... filepage setupoptions button. this should display your default printer options. check and see if your sticker printer doesn't already have the desired size. if not... you may have to play with the row highth and font size to make it fit the lable(sticker?). yeah i know. trial and error(yuk). but i did have to do that once back in xl2000 days. regards FSt1 "MnS" wrote: Hi there, I have a 20Rx10C table and columns are headings like Name Sirname phone number etc. I have given a task to print all that data on stickers(10,5x4cm) in a format like Name Sirname Phone number Adress Note I've heard there is a way to do this with excel automatically.

Printing on stickers
If you have MSWord, you can use excel to hold the data and MSWord to print the
labels. (saved from a previous post) You may find that using excel for your data and MSWord for your invoice looks prettier. You may want to read some tips for mailmerge. http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/mailmerg.htm http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/MailMerge The first is from David McRitchie and the second is by Beth Melton and Dave Rado. And just in case you have text that needs to be formatted (percentages, for example): Debra Dalgleish posted this: There's an article on the Microsoft web site that might help you: Answer Box: Numbers don't merge right in Word http://office.microsoft.com/en-ca/as...164951033.aspx And if you prefer the old Mail Merge helper, Word MVP Suzanne Barnhill has instructions he http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/C...ngWord2002.htm about half way down the page. ========== I often cheat instead of racking my brain. I'll insert another column (probably hidden!) and use: =text(a2,"00000") (or whatever format I want) and use that field in the mailmerge. (Cheating doesn't bother me anymore <vbg.)

hi
dave may have a much better suggestion than i had. i illogicaly assumed that you had access to a label printer and that your data was layed out in the printable format. I have used xl to print lables but not in a while. regards FSt1 "mns" wrote: Hi FSt1, my table is like A B C D 1| Name Sirname EditDate Payment ... 2| Jhon Smith 12.06.2008 20.000$ which I'd like to be printed like below Jhon Smit 12.06.2008 20.000$ And is therea label printing printer:S cant I do it with a normal one like HP deskjet?
